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.

I uploaded dropbox release candidate 3.2.2: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/dropbox-rc/ If you have any problem like I do, you can try this.

Is someone else seeing this error repeatedly on boot? [/usr/lib/systemd/system/dropbox@.service:3] Failed to add dependency on systemd-user-sessions, ignoring: Invalid argument I don't use any systemd user session. The last information I had about the user sessions was that they are no longer maintained as a core feature of systemd.

Now it works, thanks a lot. After doing makepkg -g it was still necessary to edit PKGBUILD to change the line [ "$CARCH" = "x86_64" ] && sha256sums[0]='ebe31f46fb2caa821a23a9f025be8c96656d69f48b5883f7e3bef87792b16262' It seems the -g option doesn't affect this line and it was the problem I had when I've tried to compile the package. In case anyone have this issue, you just have to change the sha256sums.

gourdcaptain commented on 2015-01-19 17:36 (UTC)

...You'll need to regenerate the md5s in the PKGBUILD because it's expecting the files for 3.0.5, and with the changed version it grabs the older files and sees they don't match the newer ones. Run makepkg -g and replace the md5sums in the PKGBUILD with the ones that produces.

janilson commented on 2015-01-19 12:15 (UTC)

@fthiery, how you've installed the dropbox2? What did you change in PKGBUILD? I've tried only to change pkgver=3.0.5 to pkgver=2.10.52 but it gave me a md5sum check error. Thanks in advance
