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.

Wrong shasum for dropbox-lnx.x86-2.2.0.tar.gz. New one is 2abb48141eed36bc2198b989632adce0a61a49de.

Anyone knows how to disable the auto-upgrade feature in dropbox? Every time new version of dropbox is released, it downloads the tarball and extracts it into ~/.dropbox-dist :-(

@celilo, if the repo is first in pacman.conf, it will use the package from that repo over those lower in pacman.conf.

No, same thing for me. Switched to the experimental version which works fine.

Malix commented on 2013-05-13 11:48 (UTC)

is this working for everyone else? throws segmentation fault on my computer. % dropboxd [1] 5064 segmentation fault (core dumped) dropboxd it says "core dumped" which I assume is some kind of error log dump, but can't find it anywhere.

@celilo: mtorromeo is not having issues with this package, chori1 did. To ignore a package, I just know 'IgnorePkg' which ignores from all repos.

celilo commented on 2013-05-06 02:50 (UTC)

mtorromeo, you are probably running Yaourt and have the archlinuxfr repository installed. I had the same problem. I commented out the repository in pacman.conf and then installed dropbox from the aur. Anybody know if there is a way to ignore packages in a specific repository?

<deleted-account> commented on 2013-05-03 17:18 (UTC)

Yep, I upgraded pacman, and missed that step. All better now. Thanks.
