error: megasync: unsupported signature format

I have added the Megasync repository for Arch in my pacman.conf:

...
 [DEB_Arch_Extra]
SigLevel = Optional TrustAll
Server = https://mega.nz/linux/MEGAsync/Arch_Extra/$arch

But when I install/upgrade some package of that repository, pacman shows this error: "error: megasync: unsupported signature format"

It installs the package but I don't understand that error. The repository signature is downloaded:

$ sudo pacman -Sy
:: Synchronizing package databases...
 core is up to date
 extra is up to date
 community is up to date
 DEB_Arch_Extra                                                   4,2 KiB  1040K/s 00:00 [###################################################] 100%
 DEB_Arch_Extra.sig                                             280,0   B  0,00B/s 00:00 [###################################################] 100%

Re: error: megasync: unsupported signature format

Do they host this somehow via the OpenSUSE Build Service? If so, the OBS "support" for pgp-signed repositories is broken.
