Please make sure to import the correct GPG key first:

$ curl -sS https://download.spotify.com/debian/pubkey_6224F9941A8AA6D1.gpg  | gpg --import -

And always build in a clean chroot. It is as easy as:

pacman -S devtools
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/spotify.git
cd spotify
pkgctl build
pacman -U <path-to-spotify-package>

It is expected that the package will break now and then, as spotify continuously changes download binaries, gpg keys etc (which is not appropriate, but we cannot change this). Please be patient if an update does not occur the next day, you can still use an existing spotify install or update the version yourself.

@lightofpast Just pushed v1:1.2.20.1210-2 that now allows you to set custom launch flags in a spotify-flags.conf file under $XDG_CONFIG_HOME or ~/.config :)

@scarecat I've also noticed the file being created each time I play a specific song. Do you use the spicetify-cli package as well?

Hello, does anyone know why when exiting the app, spotify leaves explicit_filter.restore in my homedir? The file is empty btw

@gromit thanks for the help

gromit commented on 2024-09-25 15:27 (UTC)

@kokurou should be fixed with the latest versions :) We try to be fast with the updates, but I also don't want to push out untested changes ..

Hi guys, anyone know how to solve the issue with checksum mismatch for spotify-1.2.45.454-gc16ec9f6-x86_64.deb: FAILED?

Thanks for the responses @gromit and @airbreather. airbreather's recommendation did the trick.

not sure why the download was being interrupted. even using curl it failed, but wget worked.

airbreather commented on 2024-09-19 10:51 (UTC)

For whatever reason, the download would tend to get suddenly interrupted when initiated from makepkg. I worked around it by downloading the file with wget (which resumed after the interruption) and then renaming the downloaded file to what the PKGBUILD expected it to be (spotify-1.2.45.454-gc16ec9f6-x86_64.deb)

@auberonlogic works without issue for Antiz and me, which error do you get above?

auberonlogic commented on 2024-09-19 02:24 (UTC)

Getting the following error when installing:

"==> ERROR: Failure while downloading http://repository.spotify.com/pool/non-free/s/spotify-client/spotify-client_1.2.45.454.gc16ec9f6_amd64.deb"

Any idea how to resolve?

For some reason, the desktop track notifications are not functioning properly. After launching the client, the track notification popup will display for two songs and then each track change after that no longer has any notifications. I'm using KDE Plasma with the latest updates and all Spotify dependencies are fulfilled.
