It is working well in Ubuntu 16.04. After upgrading to 18.04 it refuses to start.

I had the same problem (tried it also with a fresh installation, same thing). It turned out to be a locale issue (apparently, dropbox does not install well with some locales).
You can check your locale by running



locale


and find out which locales are available for you by running



locale -a


I've managed to install dropbox properly after changing my locale to EN_GB.utf8 (was EN_IL beforehand) by running



sudo update-locale LANG=EN_GB.utf8
sudo update-locale LANGUAGE=EN_GB.utf8


I guess that you can change your locale back to what suits you best after the installation.
