For Xfce we install it directly ( http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=278256 ). For GNOME I think they have a package (with nautilus integration), but I don't know how well it works.

https://www.dropbox.com/install

If I remember correctly the instructions for Fedora worked well for me under F16 and F17.

Hi, I'm using Dropbox without serious issues, except for SElinux giving some trouble at the beginning. SElinux was blocking Dropbox from running normally, so I had to change a policy and everything is ok since then.

Glad I can help. :) I suggest this thread could be now marked as "SOLVED" (I don't recall how to do it).
