Bug 7695

Description of problem:
This is a reopening of Bug 3641 with an alternative fix.

Nautilus-dropbox does not work with Mandriva based distros because of an incompatibilty between libz.so.1 provided by mageia, and as provided by the dropbox download.

Bug 3641 amended the package description to advise the user to delete the file
~/.dropbox/libz.so.1  which works fine but is dependent on the user seeing the message, and needs to be repeated every time dropbox update their code.

As a more complete solution I have devised a small patch to test for ~/.dropbox/libz.so.1 when nautilus-dropbox starts, and to delete it if it exists.
