I dont have the whole history of this thread here in this email, I hope
everyone who feels addressed knows what this is about.
I did a little debugging to see where the autosavefile gets moved and thus
the dropbox warning (#file.lyx# "will no longer be shared with anyone")
produced. I found it, I attached a patch which would fix the warning,
however I am not proposing to commit it. I have debugged a little further
to see where the moved autosavefile gets deleted and found a comment
pointing to this bug: https://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/6587, that is why I
don't know if something should be done about that dropbox warning.
