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.

@Awebb: No problem here. Inspecting the package i don't see where the change to /etc/fstab is supposed to happen...

Awebb commented on 2011-03-05 10:32 (UTC)

Make sure you backup your /etc/fstab before installing this package. The installer will comment out your "/home" line, copy it to a new line and add ",user_xattr". I wouldn't have noticed, but it also adds the line "# Commented out by Dropbox". The changes are relevant for DB to work properly and they don't do any harm, but I don't appreciate messing with my system files without informing me about that. Maybe you should consider creating a .install file to tell the user what happened.

Updated. @jxy: Sorry to inform you that dropbox is a closed source application.

1.0.20 is out. How about compiling from source?

<deleted-account> commented on 2011-01-07 10:54 (UTC)

@Ossk, same problem here.

<deleted-account> commented on 2011-01-06 12:28 (UTC)

Someone can tell me why dropbox tray doesn't use theme icons? I read somewhere that it should.
