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.

How foolish of me, thankyou to JokerBoy and jstjohn.

SamColes, you need to use `pacman -U dropbox-1.2.50-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz`. `pacman -S` is for installing from the official repositories, not from the AUR. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_User_Repository#Installing_packages https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pacman

jokerboy commented on 2012-01-15 22:19 (UTC)

-U, not -S.

When I try to install: $ makepkg -s ... ==> Finished making: dropbox 1.2.50-1 (Sun Jan 15 22:12:01 GMT 2012) $ sudo pacman -S dropbox-1.2.50* error: target not found: dropbox-1.2.50-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz Any suggestions? thx

<deleted-account> commented on 2011-12-13 09:57 (UTC)

Ok, now I see that when I install it, the download file is correct (x86_64 version). Thank you all.

<deleted-account> commented on 2011-12-13 09:55 (UTC)

I know it works, but in Dropbox's website I saw two versions for the two architectures respectively, so I asked for personal acknowledgement. Thanks anyway.

rafaelff commented on 2011-12-12 16:52 (UTC)

You should try installing it. This package works fine for 64 bit system.

<deleted-account> commented on 2011-12-12 16:49 (UTC)

Why isn't there the package for x86_64 architecture, but only the one for x86?

rafaelff commented on 2011-11-13 13:13 (UTC)

dropbox.desktop field "Icon=dropbox.png" should not have extension (see: `grep dropbox /var/log/everything.log`)

rafaelff commented on 2011-10-27 18:49 (UTC)

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