@patrick, i don't usually give off-topic comments on bugs, but i have to argue that switching to Dropbox is not a good solution. Don't get me wrong, I believe Dropbox is a great product, and I appreciate the fact that it works brilliantly on Linux. The Dropbox client is closed-sourced, which renders it less trust-worthy. I am writing an AppArmor profile for Dropbox so that I can fully restrict its access to my home partition. Before this is done I'm running Dropbox in qemu and mounting the folder via sshfs on the host. I wouldn't use Dropbox because of privacy concern, I'm only using it now because my girlfriend wants to share file with me... Anyway my point is, the benefit of having an open-sourced client is that users can inspect its source code to make sure the program only accesses what it's supposed to access.
