Still failing for me with client 131.4.3968. I have it working though using a previous build (125.4.3474)

For anyone still having this issue, it happened to me today when trying to install on Ubuntu 14.04, i got it working using build 125.4.3474 as Torga mentioned.
Followed the steps in advanced reinstall here but when it tells you do download the latest client:cd ~ && wget -O - "https://www.dropbox.com/download?plat=lnx.x86" | tar xzf -
I changed the link to get the older version:
cd ~ && wget -O - "https://edge.dropboxstatic.com/dbx-releng/client/dropbox-lnx.x86_64-125.4.3474.tar.gz" | tar xzf -
And it worked just fine!
Still no updates on the latest build

Hi all, thanks for your reports!
We've released a new beta build that addresses this issue: https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Dropbox-desktop-client-builds/Beta-Build-132-3-3795/td-p/546837
Please give it a try if you're encountering this error. You can install it using:
cd ~ && wget -O - "https://www.dropbox.com/download?plat=lnx.x86_64&build=132.3.3795" | tar xzf -
and then start the client as usual with:
~/.dropbox-dist/dropboxd
Update (10/1): This has been released to the stable channel, and you can use the regular install process now as described at https://dropbox.com/install?os=lnx

The new build did not resolve the issue for me. I am on Ubuntu 20.04, use encrypted drive.
