It's a usability issue that doesn't limit the functionality of a core
package.

Bug description:
  I installed nautilus-dropbox from the software center. During
  installation it put up a dialog that gives the user 2 options to
  proceed: "Restart Nautilus" and "Next". It's not clear which one the
  user should choose. I think the desired behavior is that the user
  chooses "Restart Nautilus" and then chooses "Next", but that is not
  clear. Furthermore, when you press the "Restart Nautilus" button,
  there is no feedback to the user that anything happens.

  For a better user experience, consider 2 buttons in that dialog:
  "Restart Nautilus" and "Skip Restart". When pressed, both buttons
  should take the user to the next screen ("Dropbox Start Required").
  The "Restart Nautilus" button should also restart nautilus, as it
  currently does.
