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

gpg --recv-keys 1C61A2656FB57B7E4DE0F4C1FC918B335044912E

Alternatively, you can download Dropbox's public key from https://linux.dropbox.com/fedora/rpm-public-key.asc and import it with:

gpg --import rpm-public-key.asc

You can check whether keys are successfully imported or not using the output of gpg -k. You should find something like this:

pub   rsa2048 2010-02-11 [SC]
      1C61A2656FB57B7E4DE0F4C1FC918B335044912E

If you can't run the dropbox@ service normally, try to create a read-only directory ~/.dropbox-dist and run again.

After 77.4.131-1 update Dropbox is using monospace font for interface, which is ugly

I've the same issue when I try to install firefox-nightly-fr :

$ gpg --recv-keys FC918B335044912E
gpg: connecting dirmngr at '/run/user/1000/gnupg/S.dirmngr' failed: Échec de l'appel IPC connect gpg: échec de réception depuis le serveur de clefs : Pas de dirmngr

Someone could help me ?

Similar to @walkindude:

gendesk: error while loading shared libraries: libgo.so.14: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in prepare().
    Aborting...
Error making: dropbox

For the systemd service to be working correctly (stop and restart commands), you need to change the type from simple to forking:

[Service]
Type=forking

I get the same error as @acdw. Adding '-f' to gendesk in PKGCONFIG worked, although I had also to install dropbox-filesystem-fix from https://github.com/dark/dropbox-filesystem-fix

Thaodan commented on 2019-05-01 16:39 (UTC)

Why libappindicator-gtk3 for plasma? Plasma supports the StatusNotifer spec out of the box and dropbox is no GTK app.

Thank you for your time. Grat job.

Regards Paulo

jahismighty commented on 2019-04-19 14:43 (UTC)

@acdw: as a hacky workaround you can modify PKGBUILD and add the specified flag (-f) to the gendesk command in the prepare() function.
