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.

No update?

wooque commented on 2020-10-06 09:05 (UTC)

Same here, had to download and import key manually

pitlochry commented on 2020-10-06 08:51 (UTC)

I can confirm, that (using yay without sudo)

gpg --recv-keys 1C61A2656FB57B7E4DE0F4C1FC918B335044912E

does not work. Only downloading directly from https://linux.dropbox.com/fedora/rpm-public-key.asc and adding with

gpg --import rpm-public-key.asc

works. Can the PKGBUILD be updated with this?

cavernico commented on 2020-10-02 14:44 (UTC) (edited on 2020-10-02 14:51 (UTC) by cavernico)

in several machines the command

gpg --recv-keys 1C61A2656FB57B7E4DE0F4C1FC918B335044912E

wont work...

only downloading directrly from https://linux.dropbox.com/fedora/rpm-public-key.asc and add with:

gpg --import rpm-public-key.asc

Can the PKGBUILD be updated with this?

@idanka: are you using a AUR helper like yay or alike? If so, do not run them as root! Also do import the keys as user not as root.

idanka commented on 2020-09-18 21:05 (UTC)
