I looked at the file's content in another virtual console instead of pressing cancel. It recursively changes the Dropbox folder and contents to be owned by me and allow read+write+search by me.
Some googling suggests this is what Dropbox does when it doesn't like the owner or permissions of any files in the Dropbox folder. It is very weird though. I assume you have dropbox installed? It is syncing correctly? Running
find /home/dullbananas/Dropbox/ ! -user 'dullbananas'will list any files in that folder that aren't owned by you.Assuming your userid is 1000 (likely but not guaranteed), running the script should be harmless and stop the password prompt from appearing until there is another file permission issue. Check your user id with
id -u 'dullbananas'.
