This negates the need to download the entire +client once per user. +Dropbox client is self upgrading, and the next time a new version is released, +each dropbox user will get a ~/.dropbox-dist that includes the new client. +The next time that the user will start dropbox, it will start from the home +dist. From that moment and as long as the user home dist remains, the client +will start from it, not from /opt. Only users with no home dist folder (new +user or deleted dist folder) will start the client from /opt. |
