Same bug on Ubuntu 14.04LTS (all sub-versions). Problem lies in the
'dropbox update' which is run during the installation and also will be
run when users start dropbox while it is out-of-date.
In python function 'download_file_chuck' a test is made:
if progress == size: break

Still an issue with a fully-up-to-date 12.04 Unity.
install nautilus-dropbox via the dropbox.com official PPA, but cancel
when it says to start.
then install the actual DB binaries via the manual method from the
website.
if you have multiple accounts, must do this for EACH home folder -
I tried all the other methods:
Only this method as stated by previous user has worked for me:
Commands:
cd /usr/bin
then
sudo cp dropbox dropbox1
then
create a new file called dropbox using command
sudo gedit dropbox
then write this:
#!/bin/bash
~/.dropbox-dist/dropboxd
then save and exit.
I was trying to use Dropbox on Ubuntu 12.04.
It is having many problems: 1) Dropbox is not automatically starting on
its own. 2) At start, when I login into the user, it asks me, dropbox
needs root access so asks for admin password. 3) I need to manually
start dropbox daemon using command:
The problem still occurs on Xubuntu 13.04 :(

installation of nautilus-dropbox stalls at Downloading dropbox...

Hi guys,
I might have found the problem. I tried to install dropbox on a fresh linux
laptop but already copied my home directory to it. That contained the
.dropbox-dist directory which caused a lot of problems.
Completely purging dropbox with
$ sudo dpkg --purge dropbox
$ rm -r .dropbox-dist
Marking the bug as fixed since this has been fixed on the server side
and we don't need any change on the package.
David, do you plan to reinstate the redirection to https at some point?
If yes, we might still want to get the package updated in 12.04. Also
the Debian freeze is close (30 June) so
Thanks, tried to download about eight times while problem was going on,
and had so much problem. Just installed properly without a worry, so i
think, yes the bug is fixed wrt installation. Very happy.

Thank you David :)
That is a solid solution. I am glad to have this fixed. DropBox is a
great service and a smooth install experience that you deliver helps
reinforce that.
Best,

Hey guys,
The issue has been fixed server side by not using https for the downloader.
Since the downloader also uses pgp to verify the binaries it should be as
secure as it was before. Soon we will put out a new version of the package
that will use https correctly.
Thanks,
David

Thank you so much David. I'm installing it now, and can't wait to update
it! I've reinstalled Dropbox so many times already, one more time
couldn't hurt.
