I have installed marlin the elementary OS file manager in my system but I don't see any Dropbox support for it by default, is it available? How can I install it?

This answer includes instructions on how to add a third-party PPA - proceed with caution.

Yes, after you installed marlin with

 sudo add-apt-repository ppa:marlin-devs/marlin-daily; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install marlin

you can then install the Dropbox plugin for marlin and since you are at it add the Ubuntu One service plugin

sudo apt-get install marlin-plugin-dropbox marlin-plugin-ubuntuone

After installing the plugin and the official Dropbox package for Ubuntu you can activate the plugin in marlin preferences
