Comment 1 Aurelien Oudelet 2020-08-25 20:51:27 CEST
Hi José,

Thanks reporting this but you reported this about Cauldron (Mageia 8 B1) but package megasync you named is megasync-4.3.1.0-1bdk.mga7, a Mageia 7 package.

Is this correct?
Comment 2 Dave Hodgins 2020-08-25 21:22:58 CEST
It's a third party package that is violating Mageia's trademark by using
mga7 in it's package name, which causes confusion in bug reports.

The package megasync is not in Mageia 7 or Cauldron.

In Mageia 7,
$ rpm -q -f /usr/lib64/libcryptopp.so.7.0.0
lib64cryptopp7-7.0.0-1.1.mga7

In Mageia 8,
$ rpm -q -f /usr/lib64/libcryptopp.so.8.0.0
lib64cryptopp8-8.2.0-2.mga8

Either get a newer version of megasync that uses lib64cryptopp8, or manually
install the lib64cryptopp7 from the Mageia 7 repositories, such as
https://mirror.math.princeton.edu/pub/mageia/distrib/7.1/x86_64/media/core/updates/lib64cryptopp7-7.0.0-1.1.mga7.x86_64.rpm

Closing the bug as invalid since it is about a package that is not supplied
by Mageia.

Its a package from the blogdrake repository and the reporter knows its not officially supported by mageia so he must report this on blogdrake.

BTW, the blogdrake rpms use mga as part of the suffix as a way of remark that are destinated to use in mageia, i the mga suffix bother to mageia we condider remove the from the next release.
Comment 4 Jose Manuel López 2020-08-25 21:54:07 CEST
True in what they comment, sorry for the error. I had not realized that it is from the blogdrake repositories that I installed to perform some verifications with some applications.

The error is fine as invalid. We consider it closed.

The should be using something like bdm7, or any other string that makes it
clear that it is not a mga7 package specifically to avoid confusion like
the initial report here.

As i understand is possible to use <personal suffix>_mga<version> , so is style that we use from 8 and superior
