@krisko: dropbox-experimental https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=29432

krisko commented on 2012-08-28 14:24 (UTC)

That's weird, I've just installed 1.4.17 (dropbox-lnx.x86-1.4.17.tar.gz), also the download page is offering this version (for windows), maybe they forgot to update release notes? :D

mtorromeo commented on 2012-08-28 14:16 (UTC)

1.4.12 is tha latest version according to this: https://www.dropbox.com/release_notes

krisko commented on 2012-08-28 14:10 (UTC)

Hi, could please update to newest version, as this version (1.4.12) doesn't support 2-way verification.

Thank you for your explanation and sorry for the long comment, I will use pastebin in the future.

rafaelff commented on 2012-08-26 03:25 (UTC)

That's expected. Dropbox is based in a blob - proprietary software provided in binary - which sometimes make it difficult for the maintainer to install files in the correct folder without breaking things up. In these cases - and that's dropbox case - better leave the way it is, sadly. p.s. Next time, post any huge output in sites like http://pastebin.com, and then insert link in here, to avoid huge comments.

I found what blocking the dropbox folder It process Thunar. In my system run ~ 30 "thunar -deamon" - error in config. My error... Now work normal!

Genues commented on 2012-08-24 07:49 (UTC)

after reboot, problem was returned :(

luolimao commented on 2012-08-23 12:13 (UTC)

I guess it was a problem with the cache or with the .dropbox file. Well, at least it works now :)

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.
