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

If you can't run the dropbox@ service normally, try to create a read-only directory ~/.dropbox-dist and run again.

@dundee: change the pkgver to 1.1.31. When getting an md5sum error (this should happen), manually md5sum the by-makepkg-downloaded dropbox-lnx.*-1.1.31tar.gz and edit the pkgbuild to change the source md5 sum

1.1.31 is out now.

1.1.29 seems to be the latest version.

@sylar_5: I don't have nautilus-dropbox, but thunar-dropbox installed. I'm also having the problem that twa022 describes. So it's probably not a nautilus-dropbox problem?

@archibald: belongs to nautilus-dropbox, and not dropbox package. but: try to re-download nautilus-dropbox-0.6.7.tar.bz2 if this doesn't work: manually md5sum it, and change the md5sum in the PKGBUILD.
