I just tried to install Dropbox from both deb and source. But I'm still getting this error message. Is v2.10 really old? Or what can I do to fix this?

  • Do you tried apt-get update in the console for see if appears a new version of Dropbox? (Due im not using Ubuntu since 3 weeks ago... I can't say if exist a new version or it's a mistake from Dropbox)

My version is currently at 42.2.114. I installed mine following instructions at https://www.dropbox.com/install-linux in the section titled "Dropbox Headless Install via command line".



There are just two commands that need to be run. I have a 64-bit system and so I used:



cd ~ && wget -O - "https://www.dropbox.com/download?plat=lnx.x86_64" | tar xzf -


and, after moving to ~/.dropbox-dist



dropboxd


Dropbox installed this way updates automatically and starts, by default, automatically.
