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.

The tray icon issue seems related to the Qt theme. My Qt somehow happens to not detect my DE properly and uses its default built-in theme and dropbox works just fine for me. Being annoyed by the ugly UI, I just set the QT_STYLE_OVERRIDE variable and boom, no more tray icon. Setting another Qt theme for now might work as a temporary workaround.

Yep, same here - Tray icon missing completely on Xfce

Same issue here, the icon tray is missing on both Gnome-Shell and Xfce (it appeared briefly on Gnome but disappeared after a reboot).

I confirm the issue, in gnome (with topicons) the icon is missing too.

I upgraded dropbox. After a logout/login, the dropbox icon is "missing" from the system tray. I'm on Gnome and using the Topicons extension. Well it's present but not visible. I can right-click it but the icon itself is not visible.

Last time I tried it didn't work out well. Maybe something would be fine but the bundled Qt wasn't compatible with the system one and removing it lead to crashes.
