    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,

     

    Emmet

I'm the author of the PR.  Dropbox distributes a compiled packages, so an #if wouldn't help.  

 

nautilus-dropbox hasn't had any activity from Dropbox devs in years, I'm not sure if Dropbox is still interested in maintaining this.  In the meantime, so distros have already included the patch.

Thank you for your work. The dropbox support for Linux is abysmal.
