Evan, It turned out that, at least for me, your previous post implicitly
provided a work-around for this bug-in-Kubuntu's-Muon-Software-Center
(and, I assume also in Ubuntu's software center). You wrote:
"Vim, have you started the Dropbox daemon yet? On my system I
ran in terminal:
~/.dropbox-dist/dropboxd ... [snip] ..."
Googling for that command I found command-line installation instructions
at:
https://www.dropbox.com/install
which include the command to start the Dropbox daemon you referred to.
After I followed those instructions I got Dropbox to 'work'. A file
which I dropped last night in my Dropbox on another computer showed up
in my Kubuntu 12.04 Dropbox (I think it was more than 15 minutes after I
installed Dropbox). In Kubuntu's Konsole the report of the installation
of Dropbox was followed by warnings and error messages which concerned
me. Those messages were followd by many numbers which, of course, I did
not understand. I intend to copy all that in an attachment to the
message you are reading. Thanks Evan! Vim
