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.
mtorromeo commented on 2013-05-03 16:39 (UTC)
There is no signature and I don't know from what repository you are trying to get it from.
You probably need to add "SigLevel = Optional" to your custom repo.
<deleted-account> commented on 2013-05-03 16:14 (UTC)
Has the signature been changed or removed?
$ pacman -Sy dropbox
error: dropbox: missing required signature
:: File /var/cache/pacman/pkg/dropbox-2.0.8-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz is corrupted (invalid or corrupted package (PGP signature)).

Run the following command in case you got errors during "Verifying source file signatures with gpg..."
Alternatively, you can download Dropbox's public key from https://linux.dropbox.com/fedora/rpm-public-key.asc and import it with:
You can check whether keys are successfully imported or not using the output of
gpg -k
. You should find something like this:yan12125 commented on 2018-08-01 11:41 (UTC) (edited on 2020-01-24 15:13 (UTC) by yan12125)
If you can't run the dropbox@ service normally, try to create a read-only directory ~/.dropbox-dist and run again.
