    As I guessed, you have some network issues. Can you download the link above - https://www.dropbox.com/download?plat=lnx.x86_64 in some way and unpack it in your home folder? After that you should be able run the application, but without network connection it wouldn't work properly, most probably.

In my case, the problem was the max. number of computers that I can install DropBox. Basic free plan allows only three computers connect to DropBox. However, DropBox Daemon installer does not give a warning telling that max. number of computers is reached. So, it stucks at %0 download. Thanks to accepted solution I downloaded the TAR package and was able to identify the problem.
