Hannah - the response from wescpy worked for me.
Maybe worth adding it as part of the notes for install, to recommend updating the libraries. The response on Digital Ocean:
"t turns out that not all dependencies needed are installed by default, which the article from Ubuntu 14.04 failed to mention. Here is what I needed to do first:sudo apt install libc6 libglapi-mesa libxdamage1 libxfixes3 libxcb-glx0 libxcb-dri2-0 libxcb-dri3-0 libxcb-present0 libxcb-sync1 libxshmfence1 libxxf86vm1
After installing these packages, I continued the guide and was able to get Dropbox installed."
Thanks to "ccnyc" for that, and to wescpy for adding it here. - aclopes4 years agoNew member | Level 2
