Dropbox needs to update the required Fedora repository.

Apologies if this is the wrong place to post this.  This is just a heads up that Fedora Linux was updated earlier this week to 42 and so the Dropbox Fedora repository is now producing error messages ...

Adding my thanks to Hannah as well as to 6zhx7u for the workaround. I had been using an upgrade to 42 from 41 (and from 40), where I did not see this issue. Today, after a clean install, the issue arose in Discover. The CLI did no better and more clearly exposed the repo issue, so I came here to find the answer I was looking for.

It's also an opportunity to thank Dropbox for supporting Linux. That support is much appreciated.

    I second the thanks to Dropbox for supporting Linux.  Dropbox has been fine for me on Linux for many years but I've noticed that the menu on the KDE system tray has become much more useful recently.
