0002181: Error when installing MEGAX-GUI on Linux 20.04 LTS
Hello MEGA team,

I hope this message can find you well.
I was trying to install MEGAX GUI on my new ubuntu 20.04 LTS system, but when doing so I have got the following error message:

dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of megax:
megax depends on libgconf-2-4; however:
Package libgconf-2-4:amd64 is not configured yet.

And I am unable to find a way to get libgconf-2-4 installed on my system. Do you have any suggestions on this situation?

Thank you and have a good day.

Regards,
Zeping

Hi Zeping,

I am writing in response to your question regarding the MEGA software. If the package manager on your system is not able to satisfy the dependency, you may have to install it yourself. I think you can download it from:
