Bug Description

The Dropbox indicator is broken with Desktop environments that are not unity. The fix attempted that is associated with https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus-dropbox/+bug/1559249 does not resolve the problem on non-Unity environments.

With Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, in Gnome Flashback, Dropbox indicator is expected to display various options and information when selected. Instead, it displays a narrow black column with no text.

(With Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, the indicator applet in Gnome Flashback behaves as expected.)
