Package 'libnautilus-extension', required by 'virtual:world', not found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables NAUTILUS_CFLAGS
and NAUTILUS_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.

What I found is that libnautilus-extension releases follow the concurrent Gnome release.
The current release number is 43, and I don't think there ever was a version 2.16.0.
Not experienced enough to know what virtual:world is or how to proceed.

Looks like a bug: https://ask.fedoraproject.org/t/officia … a-37/27296. There's a workaround of sorts, there, though I don't know how satisfactory it might be.

Upgraded dropbox client (158.4.4564-1 -> 160.4.4703-1) and I can access my dropbox account from nautilus.

The nautilux-dropbox extension is nice to have but its not technically a requirement.

Arch Linux
