Good thread here https://www.dropboxforum.com/hc/communities/public/questions/201277199-Linux-version-keeps-updating-to-3-0-3-which-can-not-work
I downloaded the old version from the link on post 4 and went that way.

I have Xwm4 compositing disabled. I use compton as an compositor.

then:


--- Code: ---sudo apt-get update
--- End code ---

then:

Open your home folder, press Ctrl+H and remove any hidden folders with the name 'dropbox' that you see.

Menu, Settings, Session and Startup, Application Autostart tab, make sure there is no entry fro Dropbox, if there is try to remove or untick it. After that I would reboot, just to ensure there is no daemon running.

Then use Menu > System > Install Additional Software to install it correctly.
