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 :)

Hi, there is a small typo in the "sed" line that modifies the .desktop file. The "--uri=%U" should be "--uri=%u" (lowercase 'u') instead because only a single URI argument works there. It's causing labwc-git to fail to parse the .desktop file, and as a result Spotify gets no icon.

Hi, spotify used to work fine, but I have some troubles now. I tried to make a reinstall of the package but problem is still here.

Hope you can help. Thanks

I am using the pacman package and ~/explicit_filter.restore also created every time a song is played/unpaused, might have something to do with the latest Spotify update.

LRitzdorf commented on 2024-09-28 05:02 (UTC)

The same ~/explicit_filter.restore file appears for me, as soon as a play (including "un-pausing") seemingly any song.

@Muksiz No spicetify here; I'm using just classic Spotify via this package.

Muksiz commented on 2024-09-26 22:58 (UTC)

@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?

scarecat commented on 2024-09-26 14:18 (UTC)

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

kokurou commented on 2024-09-25 16:15 (UTC)

@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 ..

kokurou commented on 2024-09-25 15:06 (UTC)

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

auberonlogic commented on 2024-09-19 12:35 (UTC)

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.
