Unsupported filesystem when running on OSX host

[gschwim]

I'm trying to run a dropbox instance in docker on OSX. I'm able to get things started up and connected to dropbox. However, once syncing starts I get the following error:

[ALERT]: So your files continue to sync, sign in to your Dropbox account and move Dropbox to a supported file system.

The filesystem associated with /dbox/Dropbox is listed as osxfs:

osxfs 1.9T 91G 1.8T 5% /dbox/Dropbox

I'm guessing this version of dropbox doesn't know what to do with this type of filesystem.

Any ideas?

I also see this on Windows 10. I believe this is because of a policy change by Dropbox to only support ext4 file systems? And this container is not mounting the shared directories as ext4?

I'm new to Docker, so I could be completely off the rails here. I suspect one could point the client to unshared locations. But they would probably get wiped when the container is restarted? (and wouldn't be accessible from the host OS?).

I detailed this issue in my fork in https://github.com/otherguy/docker-dropbox/issues/6 and in the README.
