What is the distribution license for dropbox? How do you know this? I mentioned in the bugs you list that the upstream source doesn't mention any distribution license for dropbox. Without a distribution license, debian cannot distribute this software in any repository (including non-free). in your debian/copyright you have this: Files: amd64/dropbox amd64/dropboxd amd64/icons/* i386/dropbox i386/dropboxd i386/icons/* Copyright: 2008-2011 Dropbox, Inc.
