This package throws an error when it sees dropbox.desktop: dropbox.desktop already exists. Use -f as the first argument to overwrite it.
This makes makepkg throw custom exit code 4 for Error in user-supplied function in PKGBUILD.
Wouldn't it make more sense to worry about the package "already being built" in the build step and let makepkg throw its own exit code 13 for A package has already been built.
? (Which also allows -f
for override!)

Run the following command in case you got errors during "Verifying source file signatures with gpg..."

You can check whether keys are successfully imported or not using the output of
gpg -k
. You should find something like this:yan12125 commented on 2018-08-01 11:41 (UTC) (edited on 2020-01-24 15:13 (UTC) by yan12125)
If you can't run the dropbox@ service normally, try to create a read-only directory ~/.dropbox-dist and run again.
