Public bug reported:

I use Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS and following version of nautilus-dropbox:
2019.02.14-1ubuntu1

Problem: The dropbox syncing daemon keeps downloading the same upgrade
over and over again: In this case dropbox-upgrade-144.4.4491.tar.gz.
There are already several copies in folder
$HOME/Dropbox/.dropbox.cache/tmp_dirs/ .

I have a slow internet connection and it's very annoying that dropbox is
blocking it more than needed. I also don't understand why dropbox won't
continue to download a partially-downloaded upgrade file (e.g. caused by
a timeout or a suspend of the computer) but instead starting over again.

I've seen several download attempts in Ubuntu 18.04 LTS already but now
it loaded it 10x without success.

I expect that the upgrade file is downloaded only once and that an
already partially-downloaded file is continued instead starting to
download from byte 1 again.
