I cannot install the desktop app on Linux Fedora 37
Gnome 43 has removed
libnautilus-extension.so.1
making it impossible to install Dropbox on Fedora 37. Please update the rpm installer to make use of the changes in gnome 43.
For reference: ...
Hi there,
We've spoken to our team, and they've told us that they're aware of a caching issue that causes that endpoint to return invalid 404 errors. They're currently working on a fix for this, but in the meantime, retrying the link should work.
We also recommend clearing your cache before retrying, as this can assist with some common errors.
Regards,
Emmet

Dropbox StaffSame here. How to use dropbox on F37?

Hey everyone, happy Monday!
Thank you for alerting us to this problem. Dropbox engineers are aware of the problem and are working on a solution.
We don't have a date at this moment in time, but it should be rolled out soon. Thanks for your understanding.
My specific problem.
F37 desktop machine.
F37 laptop.
Dropbox does *not* sync between the two machines. Both up to date.
Nautilus pretties help, but basic syncing is essential, i.e. what we are paying for.
Please fix.

Hi all, thanks for your reports so far on this.
For anyone affected who'd like to have a look internally, please let us know here and we'll reach out via email to investigate further.
It's great to see the engagement from Dropbox on the forums, but the problem is well-described, there's nothing to be gained from reaching out individually.
We just need an engineer to be tasked with merging or adapting https://github.com/dropbox/nautilus-dropbox/pull/105.
