@lahwaacz
Sorry for that. I completely forgot about a local script that I used for reconnection. That has caused dropbox to restart all the time and not the systemd service.
lahwaacz commented on 2013-09-03 21:28 (UTC)
@orschiro: aren't you using systemd's dropbox@.service? It includes 'Restart=always'.
orschiro commented on 2013-09-03 21:20 (UTC)
The dropbox client restarts over and over again regardless how often I try to kill it. Except for the client itself I do not run any other software which could cause the client to restart:
[orschiro@thinkpad ~]$ pacman -Q | grep dropbox
dropbox 2.2.13-1
Have you got any idea how I can trace back what is causing the restarts of the client?

@rumpelsepp: OK, I don't see any reason to change the default theme, there are plenty of alternative themes, you might as well create your own:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/dropbox-white-icons
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/dropbox-ubuntu-mono-light
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/dropbox-ubuntu-mono-dark
(assuming that the linked packages work, I have not checked them)

@lahwaacz
you're right, I have talked about the panel...
I see you're right and we need more files... :(
lahwaacz commented on 2013-09-02 08:55 (UTC)
@rumpelsepp: /usr/share/pixmaps/dropbox.png is too small for you? It's 128x128 px... If you need bigger status icon for the panel, single icon won't help you:

/opt/dropbox/images/hicolor/16x16/status/dropboxstatus-busy.png

What about including a bigger icon?

The standard icon is damn to small for gnome3...
Thaodan commented on 2013-08-28 13:17 (UTC)
what about removing unneeded stuff like the windows exes from the package?

Run the following command in case you got errors during "Verifying source file signatures with gpg..."
Alternatively, you can download Dropbox's public key from https://linux.dropbox.com/fedora/rpm-public-key.asc and import it with:
You can check whether keys are successfully imported or not using the output of
gpg -k
. You should find something like this:yan12125 commented on 2018-08-01 11:41 (UTC) (edited on 2020-01-24 15:13 (UTC) by yan12125)
If you can't run the dropbox@ service normally, try to create a read-only directory ~/.dropbox-dist and run again.
