@ gothicVI I use Manjaro Gnome 20.1 pamac gtk 9.5.10-1/ aur / install dropbox 105 ... / Build error pgp
terminal: sudo -s
gpg: keyserver receive failed: General error
downloads rpm-public-key.asc
gpg: key FC918B335044912E: "Dropbox Automatic Signing Key linux@dropbox.com" not changed gpg: Total number processed: 1 gpg: unchanged: 1
Sry, but aur error output not Englist.
@idanka: how are you trying to install? Provide a bit more information.
yan12125 "Run the following command in case you got errors during "Verifying source file signatures with gpg..."
Sry, but not works "ERROR: One or more files did not pass the validity check! Failed to build dropbox"
Tray icon no longer visible since todays update. Otherwise it seems to run fine tho.
I have (a) problem(s): Although I imported the key via 'sudo gpg --import rpm-public-key.asc' Dropbox will not be installed: ... ==> Überprüfe Signaturen der Quell-Dateien mit gpg... dropbox-lnx.x86_64-104.4.175.tar.gz ... FEHLGESCHLAGEN (Unbekannter öffentlicher Schlüssel FC918B335044912E) ==> FEHLER: Eine oder mehrere PGP-Signaturen konnten nicht überprüft werden! Fehler beim Erstellen von dropbox ... What can I do?
@wooque I guess the dropbox tray picks up different methods of showing generating the sign in link, then, depending on the environment. For me, it did not work until I installed Qt5, and qt5-base is one method out of quite a few of doing that. I'm sure GTK is also adequate.
I don't have qt5-base neither and I just successfully signed in my account
I recommend adding qt5-base as a dependency. The Sign In dialog doesn't work without Qt5, which I just learned trying to get this package to work in my i3 system tray.
@eisterman This exact issue has already been explained to the maintainer, who refuses to fix this problem. The maintainer of this package seems to believe, incorrectly, that the -f flag is not what people want.
@yan12125 and @jerz4evr Finally got Dropbox installed. Thanks so much for your help!

Run the following command in case you got errors during "Verifying source file signatures with gpg..."
Alternatively, you can download Dropbox's public key from https://linux.dropbox.com/fedora/rpm-public-key.asc and import it with:
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.
