Nothing gets copied to the clipboard after clicking "Copy link" on Linux.

Application Affected
Dropbox
Device
Dell Inspiron 5482
Operating System/Browser (if using the web)
Fedora Workstation 43 running Gnome on Wayland.
Dropbox App Version (if using the app)
(241.4.4853 - found in app settings or About section)

Question or IssueThe question is about the context menu in Files. When I click on the Dropbox item in the context menu and choose "Copy link" nothing ends up in the clipboard. The only workaround I found is to go the dropbox web interface and copy the link from there.
