Description Alexander Wright 2013-10-09 19:50:30 UTC

The net-misc/dropbox ebuild is outdated, and dies with a segmentation fault on my computer.

Version 2.4.1 has just been released. I think the ebuild requires adding dev-python/cffi to the dependencies, but still fails with:

%% dropbox
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "dropbox/client/main.py", line 8, in <module>
  File "dropbox/overrides.py", line 332, in <module>
  File "dropbox/overrides.py", line 299, in __cffi_import_override
ImportError: No module named cffi.vengine_cpy

I'm afraid I don't know python, so can't fix that.

Reproducible: Always

It seems dropbox is overriding cffi. I've bumped the ebuild bundling dropbox's cffi egg.
