So I did try the suggestions, including a special dropbox.repo in the /etc directory, same result. I need this in the fedora-24 template, right?
So if I: [user@fedora-24 etc]$ cat dropbox.repo I get... [Dropbox] name=Dropbox Repository baseurl=http://linux.dropbox.com/fedora/$releasever/ gpgkey=https://linux.dropbox.com/fedora/rpm-public-key.asc Then when I run [user@fedora-24 etc]$ sudo dnf --refresh install nautilus-dropbox I get... google-chrome 2.3 kB/s | 3.7 kB 00:01 Fedora 24 - x86_64 - Updates 3.4 MB/s | 20 MB 00:05 Qubes OS Repository for VM (updates) 155 kB/s | 435 kB 00:02 No package nautilus-dropbox available. Error: Unable to find a match. [user@fedora-24 etc]$ What do you think? Thanks, Patrick -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
