Still an issue with a fully-up-to-date 12.04 Unity. install nautilus-dropbox via the dropbox.com official PPA, but cancel when it says to start.
then install the actual DB binaries via the manual method from the website. if you have multiple accounts, must do this for EACH "home" folder - installs to .dropbox-dist most howto's talk about starting via the daemon directly (dropboxd) but I found as long as the nautilus-dropbox package completed OK "dropbox start" works just fine, but it is running the above daemon behind the scenes. http://askubuntu.com/questions/126198/how-to-install-dropbox -- 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: DropBox (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
