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.

@lahwaacz: I added "After=gdm.service" and "Requires=gdm.service" to the [Unit] section of /usr/lib/systemd/system/dropbox@.service to ensure that x server is running when calling the dropbox service. It doesnt seem to work. Or am I thinking the wrong way. @jstjohn: I read the wiki for systemd but I still don't know how to accomplish your suggestion in this case. (... and if it is really the problem :) )

mariusn: Please stop trolling! Just flag the package and wait. You are just spamming everyone inbox! If you cannot wait, spend 10s updating your copy of the PKGBUILD, it will be faster.

Really!? 24hs from the last update and I'm already no longer active? Jeez...

lahwaacz commented on 2013-06-18 20:49 (UTC)

@jstjohn, rikmer: The issue is more likely to be that dropbox is started before X server.

jstjohn commented on 2013-06-18 19:03 (UTC)

rikmer, enabling a service tells systemd to start the service at boot but does not tell systemd to start the service immediately. They are two separate behaviors. You likely want to enable and start the service at the same time instead of doing one or the other. See this for more info: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Systemd#Using_units
