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.

Good point, Majortom. I'll hold nautilus-dropbox update until this package gets updated.

wizetek commented on 2011-10-26 13:06 (UTC)

1.1.45 still seems to be the latest official. There is also a separate package dropbox-experimental 1.2.x in AUR. I'd only flag this out-of-date if dropbox.com clearly indicated a newer version.

I don't know and didn't verify. I just notice nautilus-dropbox newest version (0.7.0) requires dropbox 1.2.45... Dropbox web interface seems to provide 1.1.45, thought.

are you sure this is not just a testing version? http://www.dropbox.com/release_notes

rafaelff commented on 2011-10-25 21:22 (UTC)

Version 1.2.45 is out. source: https://dl-web.dropbox.com/u/17/dropbox-lnx.x86-1.2.45.tar.gz md5sum: 9b48f16f349892f91d6957e9cd7a888c

Work perfectly in Sony Vaio FS630w. Running LXDE on wireless connection.

Updated to 1.1.45, updated the terms of service, changed the tagline and the icon in the desktop file as suggested.

KaoDome commented on 2011-09-03 12:34 (UTC)

Hello, I would like to propose a modification to a file provided by this package. The desktop file (/usr/share/applications/dropbox.desktop) specifies the icon hard coded to the actual path which prevents correct "theming". If instead of that hardcoded path it read "dropbox.png" it would be possible to use automatically the customized icon if the current icon theme provides it (e.g. the Faenza icon theme provides a replacement for the default Dropbox icon). I think line 6 in that file should be changed to read: Icon=dropbox.png
