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.

Thanks mtorromeo.

Well, you could have asked for an update instead of "fix or disown", but ok, I updated it now. If you had a fix available earlier I'm sure many other users would have appreciated knowing about it and I wouldn't have had any problems applying it.

and FYI it was fixable. I was about to start on the PKGBUILD mods and an install script when i saw there's a new fixed release anyway.

Like this is fixable... This is closed source, you know. If you know about a fix just let me know. Also the flag is for outdated packages, not for complaining.

korrode commented on 2014-03-17 12:06 (UTC)

Fix or disown.

It doesn't work for me. when I run `dropboxd' in terminal. this command doesn't return. No files can sync. Both dropbox and dropbox-experimental are the same. How can I find the history version of dropbox?

cgirard commented on 2014-03-14 14:18 (UTC)

bedi1982: Well as its name implies, the experimental version bring more recent but unstable version. It just means the fix will come in an upcoming stable version.

The dropbox-experimental here from AUR brought up that login screen to me. Dunno why this one here doesn't, maybe maintainer should check if he still using the newest version of dropbox from upstream?

aryklein commented on 2014-03-13 00:02 (UTC)

I can't get a prompt screen for my login information with dropbox-2.6.18, so I had to go back to dropbox 2.6.7-1. This one works fine.
