Since version 2024.04.17-1 dropbox-cli is built from the nautilus-dropbox source as currently the dropbox.py source file is not aligned with the latest release in https://linux.dropbox.com/packages/

It works perfectly on my computer once I fix the md5sums.

<deleted-account> commented on 2013-02-19 15:25 (UTC)

after fixing those md5sums i still get an error when running it: $ dropbox status Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/dropbox", line 1389, in <module> ret = main(sys.argv) File "/usr/bin/dropbox", line 1378, in main result = commands[argv[i]](argv[i+1:]) File "/usr/bin/dropbox", line 718, in newmeth return meth(*n, **kw) File "/usr/bin/dropbox", line 1041, in status console_print(line) File "/usr/bin/dropbox", line 127, in console_print f.write(st.encode(enc)) UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode characters in position 3-14: ordinal not in range(128)

These are the new md5sums: md5sums=('43599a117ed9efef030e765c0918759b' 'f48ce021cf70cdde419a57656133827a')

Just to point out, add --follow-symlinks like this: patch -i $srcdir/arch.patch --follow-symlinks so you dont lose 10 min like me while trying to add it after patch -i

PKGBUILD is broken, you need to add to "patch -i" "--follow-symlinks" THEN BUILDING WORKS;)

"File dropbox.py is not a regular file -- refusing to patch" -> patch can't patch over symlink, I guess Also, depends were checked on build time. Why is that? Why do I have to have dropbox installed when I just want to build the package?? Doesn't make sense! Might be a problem of makepkg utility!?

Made a workaround to change Dropbox path and have funcional dropbox-cli commands, inspiration and information about startup script etc from here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Dropbox#Multiple_Dropbox_Instances Basicly the alias "dropbox" just temporarily changes your $HOME before running a dropbox-cli command to make it adopt that home aswell. And also this can be extented upon to make working for multiple dropbox instances by adding another alias with another dropbox path. The difference from normal dropbox-cli command execution compared to the new way will be: old way: /usr/bin/dropbox start new way: dropbox <enter> start <enter> So just add this below to your .bashrc and set your own dropbox_path (if on other partition make sure it's mounted with the right permissions). The only thing that i've found does NOT work is the "autostart" option which also can be worked around in many ways (link above) #******************************** # Redirect dropbox-cli commands # to change Dropbox's home path #******************************** dropbox_path="/mnt/data" user_path="/home/`logname`" dropbox_cli='/usr/bin/dropbox' set_home_dropbox="HOME=$dropbox_path" set_home_home="HOME=$user_path" alias dropbox="read -p '[Dropbox@'"$dropbox_path"']> ' input;\ $set_home_dropbox; $dropbox_cli \$input; $set_home_home;"

bruce: It did miracles for me! all works well now, thanks =) ...before the build() didn't work, so I commented it out and then i couldn't start the daemon with /usr/bin/dropbox start OR start -i.

Hi, The PKGBUILD doesn't work if using a SRCDEST in /etc/makepkg.conf (as the file is a symlink and hence patch won't patch it). Can I suggest [this](http://codepad.org/jExnbhUN) as a better alternative? Cheers :-)

The dropbox.py file is a cross-platform python script Please change arch=("i686" "x86_64") to arch=('any')
