Just for completeness, I informed Dropbox of this problem and I'm waiting some news from them (David Euresti in particular, I just subscribed him to this bug). It's not really specific to the Ubuntu package, the dropbox wrapper fails in the same way when you run "dropbox start -i" for the first time after an installation from source.
The "work-arounds" suggested by others in this bug report are just explanations of how to do a manual installation (what the wrapper is supposed to automate). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1016559 Title: nautilus-dropbox installation hangs while downloading To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus-dropbox/+bug/1016559/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
