I downloaded dropbox (nautilus-dropbox_0.7.1_amd64.deb) from Dropbox site, but when I try to install it, i get error message:
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of nautilus-dropbox:
nautilus-dropbox depends on libnautilus-extension1 (>= 2.30); however:
Package libnautilus-extension1 is not installed.
dpkg: error processing nautilus-dropbox (--install)
"libnautilus-extension1a 3.2.1-3" is installed. What's wrong?
Thanks
libnautilus-extension1 != libnautilus-extension1a
Seems, that package is for ubuntu or debian stable.
nautilus-dropbox is in the non-free repos, you may install that via apt-get, if the repo is enabled.
I liked the old installation way of Dropbox, now they do it with a script. I didn't even know there are deb now...
If they are Debian, they may be better.
if not try the "old" way:

Step-by-step version
login as user!
1. Log in to your Linux server so you obtain a shell prompt, and change to your home directory.
cd
2. a. Stable 32-bit:
*
wget -O dropbox.tar.gz "http://www.dropbox.com/download/?plat=lnx.x86"
* Stable 64-bit:
wget -O dropbox.tar.gz "http://www.dropbox.com/download/?plat=lnx.x86_64"
3. Sanity check to make sure we're not going to clog our home directory.
tar -tzf dropbox.tar.gz
4. Extract
tar -xvzf dropbox.tar.gz
5. Make sure the LANG environment variable is set to something other than NULL, e.g. en_US.iso88591. If it is NULL, you'll get a cryptic error.
6.
Run dropboxd:
~/.dropbox-dist/dropboxd
7. You should see output like this:
This client is not linked to any account... Please visit https://www.dropbox.com/cli_link?host_id=7d44a557aa58f285f2da0x67334d02c1 to link this machine.

<!> dropboxd will create a ~/Dropbox folder and start synchronizing it after this step! Go to the URL given; you should see a success message at the top of your screen.

apt-get install nautilus-dropbox is all you need and it works fine.
