Bug Description

I suppose, the following is not a usual user case, but following just happened to me:
1. Authorising Shutter for use with Dropbox. Shutter appeared in the app list on the Dropbox website. Upload worked fine then.
2. Removing Shutter from the Dropbox app list (for testing reasons :-)).
3. Trying to authorize Shutter once again fails with:

  Something went wrong: 401 Unauthorized at /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/Net/Dropbox/API.pm line 461.

Restarting the network connection (to get a new IP), restarting the Dropbox daemon, restarting Shutter (also with ~/.shutter renamed) didn't help. Thus I suppose there is a problem either with Dropbox itself or with the Dropbox API perl module. Where to start searching for the cause of this problem? Could it be related to https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=69718 ?

This was a bug in our code. If the uses expires the auth token we need to re-authenticate. This functionality was now added. Thanks for reporting.
