Description

I'm trying to run a dropbox instance in docker on OSX. I'm able to get things started up and connected to dropbox. However, once syncing starts I get the following error:

> [ALERT]: So your files continue to sync, sign in to your Dropbox account and move Dropbox to a supported file system.

The filesystem associated with /dbox/Dropbox is listed as osxfs:

> osxfs 1.9T 91G 1.8T 5% /dbox/Dropbox

I'm guessing this version of dropbox doesn't know what to do with this type of filesystem.

Any ideas?

Research direction

Reproduce the Docker Dropbox setup on an OSX host with /dbox/Dropbox mounted on osxfs, then observe the alert when syncing begins. Done would mean Dropbox syncs without reporting the filesystem as unsupported; the issue does not name a source file or test to start from.
