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.

Looks like there's a 2.2.6 version also: https://dl-web.dropbox.com/u/17/dropbox-lnx.x86-2.2.6.tar.gz

I didn't notice that it create folders on /tmp but at least it doesn't update my dropbox on home. Maybe inotify would help...

Is anyone else getting really annoyed when others comment on here when there's a new version available instead of just using the flag package out-of-date feature of the AUR (not that this is any less of an annoyance, for which I preemptively apologize)?

rafaelff commented on 2013-06-17 22:49 (UTC)

Version 2.2.3 available.

@lestb: that doesn't solve the problem of downloading the tarball with newer version - see https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1280513#p1280513

I typed this to disable autougrade of dropbox: mkdir -p ~/.dropbox-dist chmod 000 ~/.dropbox-dist

techlive commented on 2013-06-09 08:35 (UTC)

@lahwaacz Yes, it made systemd service restart over and over again.

my dropbox was automagicaly updated to 2.2.1

cippaciong commented on 2013-06-06 14:33 (UTC)

Wrong shasum for dropbox-lnx.x86-2.2.0.tar.gz. New one is 2abb48141eed36bc2198b989632adce0a61a49de.

lahwaacz commented on 2013-05-27 07:04 (UTC)

Anyone knows how to disable the auto-upgrade feature in dropbox? Every time new version of dropbox is released, it downloads the tarball and extracts it into ~/.dropbox-dist :-(
