Well, never mind, then. What I needed to do was to get my home folder(s) straightened out. I installed with the wrong username, and renaming the user home folders (/home/username) doesn't fix that. Further, adding a new user with the same full name to use the disconnected user home folder wouldn't let me log in as that new user. Reinstalled with the correct username, and Dropbox installed without a hitch, all working now. Desktop shortcuts to the local Dropbox folder now work right, too.
