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.

@untitaker oh right! I missed that! Sorry and thanks.

@abmantis: The links on https://www.dropbox.com/install?os=lnx redirect to this.

This is pointing to an user's dropbox folder and not to the official dropbox package. Is it safe?

@blackout: Nor in XFCE 4.10

Since 3.x there is no visible icon in the bottom bar in gnome

Yesterday I connected my laptop to an HDMI TV and the Dropbox icon just appeared. However it was overlapping another adjacent icon. There seems to be a problem with positioning.

Interestingly, it works for me under the linux-lts (3.14) kernel with the open-source radeon drivers, but not on 3.18. This is WEIRD.

Note: If you have set QT_STYLE_OVERRIDE to gtk in Xfce/others, you'll need to modify the launcher/startup command to: 'env -u QT_STYLE_OVERRIDE dropboxd'

Thanks JB26. I find the workaround in the comments make sense cgirard.

JB26 commented on 2014-12-20 01:57 (UTC)

The missing trayicon seems to be a bug in qt5: https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-31762 I also found a workaround for the missing icon, try starting dropbox with strace: strace dropboxd &> /dev/zero I have no idea why that is working. It seems to be driver related: nvidia-340xx --> icon working out of the box nouveau & intel --> icon not working "strace dropboxd" works for both nouveau & intel.
