Install Spotify on Fedora 22 x86_64

I had trouble installing Spotify on Fedora 22 x86_64, so here you go:

  • Add the rpmfusion repos (http://rpmfusion.org/Configuration) - I won't go into details, there are plenty tutorials online
  • Run: sudo dnf install lpf-spotify-client
  • After you run it, add yourself to the group, logout and log back in.
  • Run: lpf-gui
  • Build Spotify (if it fails the first time, try again)
  • Add red's repo for libgcrypt.so.11 compatibility by running:
  • cd /etc/yum.repos.d
  • sudo wget https://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/red/libgcrypt.so.11/repo/fedora-22/red-libgcrypt.so.11-fedora-22.repo
  • Install the library: sudo dnf install compat-libgcrypt
  • Delete the one in the Spotify directory:
  • cd /usr/lib64/spotify-client
  • sudo mv libgcrypt.so.11{,~}
  • Create a symlink to red's library: sudo ln -sv /usr/lib64/libgcrypt.so.11
  • Spotify should now be working. Enjoy your music!
