Hi,

I have upgraded my dropboxd version to the newest and now it doesn't start. I get a segfault. Very little on the internet as to what might have happened, unfortunately I didn't keep the old version.

Anyone else had problems with this?
Version of dropbox is 41.4.80.

This is the output of ./dropboxd

Code:

~/.dropbox-dist> ./dropboxd 
dropbox: locating interpreter

How did you upgrade? Is this a rolling release? You'll likely have to update some dependencies too. I had a similar problem on Void Linux with Vlc and Smplayer, luckily updating the whole system fixed it.

Hi,

This is Opensuse Leap 42.2, no upgrade, well I upgraded dropbox not opensuse. Oddly I have another machine that is fine. I have heard that it might be something to do with the libGL.so.1/KDE5/Nvidia Drivers. I will check to see if the other machine is running a different version of the Nvidia Drivers.
