A quick one, I've been scratching my head quite a bit with the newer Dropbox installer.
The Dropbox "installer" comes in a DMG. Turns out it can be automated by calling the following installer:
"/Volumes/Dropbox Installer/Dropbox.app/Contents/MacOS/Dropbox Installer"
Spaces in the path courtesy of Dropbox.

I usually use this python script to handle the dmg's. So, instead of having the policy "Install" the package, it caches it and then runs this script "after" to install it:

@guillaumeremy Can you elaborate on this one for us/me? Pretty please! WHAT exactly and HOW exactly did you set this up in the JSS? We have tried every single instance of trying to create a working install .pkg with no avail. It's never 100%. Willing to try the .DMG route. Please advise.

to stop the "admin credentials" nag after a simple install, we use this and it's looking good so far:
chmod 0000 /Applications/Dropbox.app/Contents/Resources/*.tgz
