12+ ## Configures
13+
14+ - No dotfiles or stow config — Dropbox manages its own state under ` ~/Dropbox ` .
15+
16+ ## Notes
17+
18+ - ** Ubuntu** : the daemon binary lands at ` ~/.dropbox-dist/dropboxd ` . Run it once
19+ to authenticate and link your account. The ` dropbox ` CLI (Python script at
20+ ` /usr/local/bin/dropbox ` ) can then manage the daemon (` start ` , ` stop ` ,
21+ ` status ` , ` ls ` , etc.).
22+ - ** Ubuntu** : several Mesa/XCB libraries are installed as runtime dependencies
23+ before the daemon tarball is extracted.
24+ - ** macOS** : installed as a cask so it appears in ` /Applications ` ; Homebrew is
25+ the only prerequisite (` macos-brew ` ).
