Package: nautilus-dropbox
Version: 1.6.1-1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
I noticed that Dropbox hadn't been updating since late yesterday.
I tried to start Dropbox from the command line,
with dropbox start, and got the following Python import error:
Starting Dropbox...Traceback (most recent call last):
File "dropbox/client/main.py", line 13, in <module>
File "autogen_explicit_imports.py", line 13, in <module>

'/home/tbekolay/pylinux/__pycache__/_cffi__xa0c4f46bx1d95b4de.so': No module
named _cffi__xa0c4f46bx1d95b4de
Dropbox then does a time.sleep(), but it doesn't seem like
it would ever be able to recover from that error.
Starting the program as root gives the same issue.
Since the issue seems to be with pylinux / cffi,
and is python3 given its use of __pycache__,
I tried installing the python3-cffi pacakge,
but this did not resolve the issue.
Since it's an import issue, I checked my $PYTHONPATH,
but it is currently empty.
I did a dropbox update to check if it was using an outdated
upstream binary, but the problem persisted.

Okay, I'm closing this bug then, as there really isn't much we can do in the
open source bits of the package -- the error comes from the bundle that's
downloaded from Dropbox's website itself.
