I wish Dropbox would care enough to fix this.

Don't know if this is related, but when *I* tried installing Dropbox (from their .deb file), the notification area icon and box didn't work for me, either. Found a permanent fix by editing the Dropbox config file as follows:
In a terminal window [CTRL-ALT-T], type or copy/paste the following:
Code:sudo leafpad /usr/bin/dropbox
Create a new line after 'import os' and add the following:
os.environ['DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS'] = ""
Save [CTRL-S] and reboot.

Sorry for the delay, but just got round to doing this, so thanks N4RPS, works perfect for me.

I just wanted to confirm I have had the same issue with dropbox icon and N4RPS post helped mi to solve the problem. Anyway, this is annoying and I think it should be pointed somewhere in the help files.

I've fixed and tested a patch for this and uploaded the new dropbox packages. Should be fine now.

[size=1.35em]Hi everybody!
In my computer the dropbox icon in the panel was not working. Also the left-click-menu wasn't working too. So I came to this thread and see that the line [/size]
Code:
os.environ['DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS'] = ""[size=1.35em]was in the /usr/bin/dropbox file. I commented it (with "#") and started Dropbox with [/size]
Code:
dbus-launch dropbox start[size=1.35em]To clarify, I have LinuxLite 3.4 on a Dell Inspiron Mini 1018 but I had to install upstart and sddm for the OS to work in my computer. Maybe that's the problem in my case.[/size]
[size=1.35em]Hope this helps anyone.[/size]

The package in Lite Software still works fine in regards to the tray icon.
