The easiest way to install Insync on Manjaro (Arch) Linux, is to use
the AUR (Arch user repositories) repositories. There are different
clients to help you interface with AUR, and I'm not clear about why
getting sources sometimes works in one as opposed another, but I
digress. I used yaourt to install Insync, but first I had to install
yaourt:
$ sudo pacman -S base-devel yaourt
Being
a relatively new install, of course my mirrors file was all out of
whack, and the above command didn't actually work until I ran:
$ sudo pacman-mirrors -g
$ sudo pacman -Syy
then one can install Insync:
$ yaourt insync
yaourt
will present you with some developer chat and ask if you want to edit
the config file, just say no (unless you really know what you are
doing).
Accept the rest of questions about continuing, then use synapse to start Insync.
Excellent instructions. Worked first try
