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,

    Hey dpawson, sorry for the late reply here, but I just wanted to mention that this should have been fixed after a recent release.

     

    Please let us know if anything else comes up.

    I installed Dropbox @ Fedora 37 successfully today.

    Now, I wonder why I cannot See, under Nautilus, the "special icons" showing the sync-status of each file/folder.
    To be true, I see "additional icons" beside "shared folders", now the "check-marks" does not show...


    Is that an issue only at my side, or it does NOT exist anymore?
    Is there a way to solve it?

    Many thanks for your help!
    Regards, Alex

    So not 'a fix available, please update'?
    So it isn't yet a fix?

    You need to install the nautilus-dropbox package to get the icons and dropbox context menu.

    'Re-install' / update, yes. The prev answer was 'we re working on it'

    Hi all, can you please let us know if you're still having issues with this?

     

    If you do, please try clearing your browser's cache and refreshing the page before downloading and installing the app from this page.

    Hmm...🤔 Walter, Where in the page, your link points to, can be seen DEB package dedicated for Gtk4 based Nautilus? As far as I can see, the plugin in the DEB package there supports only Gtk2 or Gtk3 based Nautilus. Am I wrong? 🧐

    So why isn't there a 'clear this report' option?

    AFAIK (with a re-install) this problem is cleared (until the next Linux update perhaps),

    so please mark it as cleared?

    Spoiler
    Yes, but the same issue comes up with Fedora 38?

    fyi, Fedora updates roughly every 6 months.
