DropboxClientsManager authorizeFromController not doing anything
Hello,
I'm having trouble presenting the Dropbox login to the user. I had it working some time ago, but today I tried it and nothing happens. I make this call and nothing happens.

Hey Greg,
Finally found it. I was skipping the call to DBClientsManager setupWithAppKey! It was in there, but I was mistakenly skipping it when my app had stored the preference that Dropbox was disconnected. It's weird that that produces no error messages. I found the problem by stepping in the debugger into authorizeFromController and noticing that both my sharedApplication and controller arguments were 'nil', even though they were valid values when I passed them. Then I noticed the assert in that function:
NSAssert([DBOAuthManager sharedOAuthManager] != nil, @"Call `Dropbox.setupWithAppKey` or `Dropbox.setupWithTeamAppKey` before calling this method");As soon as I saw that, I knew what I had done.
I guess that the assert never fired, because [DBOAuthManager sharedOAuthManager] is a valid number even if you have not called setupWithAppKey?
Anyway thanks for helping me with this problem, I really appreciate it. I'll probably run into more but at least this one is down.

Man, you do not want to see this code. It is like a building that people have added multiple floors to, with extra sheds and carparks and a kitchen in back. I would be ashamed to show it to anyone, and it is freaking huge too.
The one thing that makes me think it doesn't have to do with viewControllers, however, is that in the other app, the one that works, it doesn't open a viewController when I authorize. It opens the Dropbox app. So I assume this broken app would do the same thing.
Greg how do I determine which version of the SDK I have? I set my Cartfile to ~> 3.0.11, but I just noticed that in the shell when I run the update, it says Checking out dropbox-sdk-obj-c at "3.0.14". I am compiling with a deployment target of 8.0 and not getting any errors -- does that mean it would just crash on an iOS 8 machine or just not connect?
