hello everyone,<div><br></div><div>i've been testing the mageia alpha-1 and -2 and i stumbled over a weird behaviour of my lovely dropbox client.</div><div>(dropbox is a sync service) the client is available for fedora and ubuntu and as tar archive for compilation.</div>
<div><br></div><div>the package as the comiled sources don't do very much, they only download and install the actual dropbox daemon which is closed source.</div><div>it works fine on ubuntu but not on mageia :/</div><div>
<br></div><div>the installed menuitem doesn't do anything and the console application is just acting weird.</div><div><br></div><div>the command list:</div><div><div>$ dropbox </div><div>Dropbox command-line interface</div>
<div><br></div><div>commands:</div><div><br></div><div>Note: use dropbox help <command> to view usage for a specific command.</div><div><br></div><div> status get current status of the dropboxd</div><div> help provide help</div>
<div> puburl get public url of a file in your dropbox</div><div> stop stop dropboxd</div><div> running return whether dropbox is running</div><div> start start dropboxd</div><div> filestatus get current sync status of one or more files</div>
<div> ls list directory contents with current sync status</div><div> autostart automatically start dropbox at login</div><div> exclude ignores/excludes a directory from syncing</div></div><div><br></div>
<div>i think the daemon wasn't installed correctly ( although i tried it several times ) because every command just throws errors.</div><div>e.g.:</div><div><div>$ dropbox start</div><div>Dropbox isn't responding!</div>
<div>Dropbox is already running!</div></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><div>$ dropbox filestatus</div><div>Traceback (most recent call last):</div><div> File "/usr/bin/dropbox", line 1242, in <module></div>
<div> ret = main(sys.argv)</div><div> File "/usr/bin/dropbox", line 1231, in main</div><div> result = commands[argv[i]](argv[i+1:])</div><div> File "/usr/bin/dropbox", line 604, in newmeth</div>
<div> return meth(*n, **kw)</div><div> File "/usr/bin/dropbox", line 860, in filestatus</div><div> status = dc.icon_overlay_file_status(path=fp).get(u'status', [u'unknown'])[0]</div><div> File "/usr/bin/dropbox", line 575, in __spec_command</div>
<div> return self.send_command(unicode(name), kw)</div><div> File "/usr/bin/dropbox", line 533, in send_command</div><div> ok = self.__readline() == u"ok"</div><div> File "/usr/bin/dropbox", line 509, in __readline</div>
<div> raise DropboxCommand.BadConnectionError()</div><div>__main__.BadConnectionError</div></div><div><br></div><div>or my favorite:</div><div><br></div><div><div>$ dropbox start --install</div><div>Dropbox isn't running!</div>
<div>Dropbox is already running!</div></div><div><br></div><div>does anybody maybe have the same problems or any solution hints for this?</div><div><br></div><div>thank you.</div><div><br></div><div>lb</div>
