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.

@Vladimiroff: seems like an upstream bug. I don't use selective sync so I never ran into this. @ngoonee: the link is https:// because of a previous request. I don't really care which one to use, but I cannot satisfy both requests so just change the link in the PKGBUILD. @NobodySpecial: thanks!

Segmentation fault on trying to sync selective folders, only.

ngoonee commented on 2011-05-29 22:23 (UTC)

Request: could the download link be http:// rather than https://? Works fine here, and the https link somehow never seems to get started. Even better, my university blocks some https links =).

mtorromeo - no need to apologize, we appreciate your help!

mtorromeo commented on 2011-05-29 14:44 (UTC)

Updated. Sorry for the wait.

It could be wrong, but namcap returns these error messages (and some non important warning messages, not mentioned here: dropbox E: Dependency popt detected and not included (libraries ['lib/libpopt.so.0'] needed in files ['opt/dropbox/librsync.so.1']) dropbox E: Dependency sqlite3 detected and not included (libraries ['usr/lib/libsqlite3.so.0'] needed in files ['opt/dropbox/_sqlite3.so'])

@twa022: Dropbox needs Python 2 and, possibly, GTK 2 to work. Check those are installed.

For 64bit systems change pkgver=1.1.28 to pkgver=1.1.31 change [ "$CARCH" = "x86_64" ] && md5sums[0]='6c22e7c6d3370512d677d10059b23618' to [ "$CARCH" = "x86_64" ] && md5sums[0]='a607cae9520626a208b51bb6d4230d5d' then it will load up fine.
