Issue with the Dropbox application v52 (freezing/ crashing) on Mac devices.

Recently I noticed Dropbox.app is not running on my MacBook Pro (El Capitan).

When I run following command on a terminal,

 

$ /Applications/Dropbox.app/Contents/MacOS/Dropbox

 

many messages are listed, and after a while, it stops as follows.

 

..... dropbox: thread d0eb58 is not a python thread

Segmentation fault: 11

 

The version is the latest version which I downloaded from the site today.

 

Any suggestions?

    OK! Would it be possible for any of you that presented this issue to give this beta a try and report back here whether or not the issue persists for you?

     

    Thanks!
