Dropbox for R6 (x86 only)
Those wanting a Dropbox add-on similar to the one for 4.2.x with support for bidirectional syncing of entire Dropboxes need wait no longer. Take a look at this great add-on by WhoCares?: https://rnxtr...

Nope, nothing in /root. Despite that, it was odd that /folders/ were showing up in my user homedir, but not files. :) Would it put them different places? ;)
Anywho, I downloaded 1.0.4 from the site, removed the 1.0.2 (1.0.1?) install. I did have to reboot the NAS to get back into the admin UI afterward. Noticed the same pattern of folders left behind as before. I did additionally check /data and found .dropbox and .dropbox-master. Removed those too.
Upon installing 1.0.4, it seemed to magically remember that my user was configured. Given I'd previously wiped out the list in /etc/default/dropbox when doing earlier uninstall, I'm left to imagine that the file was left there after doing this last uninstall? Not sure.
The /good/ news is that it looks like it's actually downloading files this time. The count hasn't gone down in a bit, so I suspect it's got a big file downloading now (I've got about 3GB in there). But it's still actually running and I can observe files it's successfully retrieved. Much improved.
Am I curious enough to try and install the old version to verify if that was the issue? Not at this moment, but ask me later. ;)
Also, is there a way to get notified when new builds of the add-on are available?
