Hi Andrew, I did follow them precisely, I just started fumbling around on my 
own - basically it still says it can't find the file, errors out - just like 
before - so I was just adding 2+2, figured it was the one I pointed out. 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
