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.

simply start the program "dropboxd" there is no .service...

@dengzxf I agree! Where's the dropbox.service located at? I did "systemctl start dropbox" but nothing happened :(

dengzxf commented on 2013-12-28 06:46 (UTC)

It's time to update to 2.4.10 !

Taijitu commented on 2013-12-16 20:38 (UTC)

Maybe, but in order to get the GUI for configuring the account, folder placement etc, I had to also include the "dropbox" excecutable into the package...

@Taijitu This package provides the dropboxd program within your PATH. I think what you might be looking for is the dropbox-cli program, which provides a Python script that can manage running Dropbox via `dropbox start`, `dropbox stop`, etc.

Taijitu commented on 2013-12-12 16:00 (UTC)

This may be a stupid question, but I had to manually add ln -s "/opt/dropbox/dropbox" "$pkgdir/usr/bin/dropbox" to the PKGBUILD in order to actually get dropbox working. Is that about right, or am I on the wrong track?

@lahwaacz My fault. I did not have the wiki page at hand and thought I might just quickly show him what he can expect from using downgrade.

lahwaacz commented on 2013-12-05 15:46 (UTC)

@orschiro: you should have mentioned https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/downgrade/ Or, even better: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Downgrading_Packages

@olkkoo Same problem with me. How to roll back to previous version?
