@Sanras @ThePoorPilot: That's not how it works with VCS packages.

VCS packages are not considered out of date when the pkgver changes, do not flag them as the maintainer will merely unflag the package and ignore you. AUR maintainers should not commit mere pkgver bumps.

@xyzzy, I agree with @ThePoorPilot. It would be helpful if you could update the package's version number please.

ThePoorPilot commented on 2021-04-27 23:03 (UTC)

The PKGBUILD itself isn't out of date, but the package version is out of date.

Would it be possible to update the version number to r87.451b206-1, the newest version.

Since the version number isn't being updated in the PKGBUILD, people are not getting update notifications in their AUR helpers.

@ren92 take a look at this GitHub issue I opened: https://github.com/abba23/spotify-adblock-linux/issues/108

@matt17br can you tell me what the solution for the not loading issue was? I have the same problem on the current version. Thanks!

The latest git version fixes this. (At least for me)

@xyzzy, that was a great pointer because I think I might have found what the issue is. Opened an issue in the github repo, thanks.

@matt17br, the spotify AUR package now follows the testing branch instead of the stable branch. Everything has been working for me, but there can be regional differences with what needs to be whitelisted.

It would help if you could do some debugging by launching Spotify with the adblocker from a terminal (LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/spotify-adblock.so spotify) and see if there are any blocked requests when you try to access the pages that aren't working for you. Please create an issue on Github if you find anything, so this can be fixed for everyone.
