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
uid           [ unknown] Dropbox Automatic Signing Key <linux@dropbox.com>

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

Similar to what others have commented, I am now getting this error:

    dropbox@.service ... Passed

   dropbox-lnx.x86_64-130.4.4978.tar.gz ... FAILED

gpg --keyserver hkp://pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys FC918B335044912E

works for me as suggested here https://forum.endeavouros.com/t/dropbox-install-from-aur/1871

I think this package needs to be upgraded to version

121.4.4267-1

xavierbaez commented on 2021-05-03 20:44 (UTC)

My dropbox says it's not the latest version I have package dropbox 120.4.4598-1 Dropbox Linux version 96.4.172

The dropbox client is auto-updating in your homedir, see https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Dropbox#Prevent_automatic_updates

The program does not open on gnome 40.
