Laravel-backup: There is not backup destination with a disk named 'dropbox' after update with Laravel 5.5

I've had an issues this morning trying to get the backup working with Dropbox since updating to laravel 5.5 and the latest version of laravel-backup.

It kept saying: Backup failed because:

There is not backup destination with a disk named dropbox.

Turns out it's looking for config/backup.php and not config/laravel-backup.php as it used to,
So after running this:
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Spatie\Backup\BackupServiceProvider"

I simply changed the disk in backup.php to dropbox and everything is working now.
Thought this might catch someon else out so I've added it here.
Not sure if I missed this config file rename somewhere along the line or perhaps it should be aded somewhere?

Thanks for the great packages once again!

The name chance of the config file is mentioned in the upgrade guide: https://github.com/spatie/laravel-backup/blob/master/UPGRADING.md

As a bit of a github novice I didn't realise that file was there, maybe it's not an issue for everyone else.
Thanks for the quick response
