Dropbox app indicator crash topbar 17.10

[Javier Antonio Nisa Avila]

In the version of ubuntu 17.10 the dropbox application prompt that should be output on the top bar within a few minutes of starting ubuntu 17.10 disappears, and does not reappear but reboots. Also during the short time it is almost impossible to access the menu of the dropbox indicator app. In 17.04 it worked perfectly and without problems. Please fix it.

Indicator is not showing any recent changes to files. Plus if I click on indicator a number of times the old grey version shows.

I have two computers and the same happens to me since ubuntu 17.10, in 17.04 all its perfec in 17.10 its broken. The indicator in 17.10 appears when I enter the desktop, and in a few minutes disappear the indicator. Also in that time if I click on the indicator does not appear the menu and remains frozen, or if it appears costs a lot and just after leaving the menu disappears the indicator.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

I'm affected too. This bug renders Dropbox hardly usable on my desktop as without the indicator I cannot use the "selective sync" feature.

Addition to my previous comment: I can still see the "dropbox" process on the system monitor even after the indicator crashed. But I don't have any idea on how to figure out the reason the indicator keeps crashing...
