Where is op-daemon.sock created (on macOS)? (So Dropbox can be told to ignore it.)

I continually get an error from Dropbox about a file named op-daemon.sock but it is never able to show me the file and where it lives in the filesystem. The error is about "bad characters in file name", but I believe it's just that it's a socket and not a regular file.

    Well, perhaps nevermind?
    I ran a find / -name op-daemon.sock to track this down, but once I did, the xattr command given by Dropbox to mark the "file" as ignored is not permitted/supported on a socket.
    I guess this is actualy an issue to open with Dropbox.
