I might have found the problem. I tried to install dropbox on a fresh linux laptop but already copied my home directory to it. That contained the .dropbox-dist directory which caused a lot of problems.
Completely purging dropbox with
$ sudo dpkg --purge dropbox
$ rm -r .dropbox-dist
and installing from www.dropbox.com
solved all the problems.
