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.

So three days ago, 2.6.6 was released (at least in the forum).

Why is this package flagged out of date? The page https://www.dropbox.com/install?os=lnx offers me 2.6.2(!), here we even get 2.6.5 presented. Installed today, works without any problems for me so far.

Funny thing this. Removeing the suggested dirs doesn't work here also. But if i run dropbox/d from the .dropbox-dist folder which is in the lnx.tar from dropbox it seems to work. Doesn't crash but would like to have my account settings. Something is broken but i don't get what :-P

ForeverYoung commented on 2014-01-10 11:45 (UTC)

Still there is a bug. importing '/home/anton/pylinux/__pycache__/_cffi__xa0c4f46bx1d95b4de.so': No module named _cffi__xa0c4f46bx1d95b4de There is no such file even.

mtorromeo commented on 2014-01-10 08:32 (UTC)

Also remove your ~/.dropbox-dist directory

mtorromeo commented on 2014-01-10 08:32 (UTC)

Try uninstalling, remove every leftover file from /opt/dropbox (if any) and reinstall.

chepaz commented on 2014-01-10 07:35 (UTC)

Updated, but what happens here: https://paste.xinu.at/oPTjWS/ Am i missing something?
