Tricks How to Install Spotify on Manjaro Linux Without Snap or Flatpak

mrfdn – Spotify is one of the most complete online music players.

Can be used on various devices such as computers, tablets and smartphones.

The main requirement to run this application is to be connected to the internet.

Play music online but after you buy spotify’s premium package, you can enjoy music offline.

For those who often enjoy Spotify on smartphones, you can play your favorite music in sync with your laptop or computer at home.

You can easily download the Spotify application then install, sign in and enjoy your music.

But for Linux users with the Manjaro distribution base, there are a few tricks that must be done to be able to successfully run the Spotify application.

The easiest way is to use the Snap and Flatpak methods. But it will add additional application dependencies list again.

I have tried to install spotify via AUR but there is an error so the application cannot be installed.

So, for those who want to be purely from AUR/Manjaro, there is a trick.

Here’s a trick on how to install spotify on a Manjaro Linux distribution system without Snap or Flatpak

1. Copy and paste the following code in the terminal

curl -sS https://download.spotify.com/debian/pubkey_0D811D58.gpg | gpg –import –

2. If a dialog appears, just close it by pressing ctrl+C (close), 3 times.

3. After that run this code in terminal

pamac build spotify

4. Wait for it to finish

After that, Spotify will be installed and will run normally on your computer / laptop.

Good luck.
