Hi GNiX,
All posted by you are warnings/deprecation messages. Unfortunately, since Linux is NOT first class citizen on Dropbox 'opinion', very often upcoming changes lag in time (sometimes actual actions start after really application stops working completely). Since by now posted by you are only warnings, they can't be a reason for "Dropbox doesn't work" (not yet, at least). If you can't still run Dropbox, download the daemon by hands (the only thing ssl-certificates are needed for). Clear the daemon's dirs (if any) using following command:
rm -rf ~/.dropbox*
... and install it anew with:
cd ~ && wget -O - "https://www.dropbox.com/download?plat=lnx.x86_64" | tar xzf -
Now you should be able run Dropbox either from your GUI menu or command:
dropbox start
Current status (including is application working) can be check with:
dropbox status
Good luck.
