shield Recommended update for spotify-easyrpm
openSUSE-2026-303

This update for spotify-easyrpm fixes the following issues: - Update to 4.0.2 * Use curl for the snap download instead of wget, so the script needs one HTTP client rather than two. Raised in the review of 4.0.1 - Update to 4.0.1 * Give the built spotify-client RPM a timestamped release, so rebuilding an unchanged Spotify version produces an installable package instead of colliding with the installed version-release * Verify the downloaded snap against the sha3-384 digest published by snapcraft.io, and query the API over https * Fail with an error when the snapcraft.io lookup fails, instead of reporting the installed version as up to date * Own the local repo as the invoking user at 755/644 rather than making it world writable, which combined with gpgcheck=0 let any local user stage a package for zypper to install as root * Exit the prompts on EOF instead of looping forever, and reject answers that are not understood * --clean-repo keeps the newest build instead of deleting every RPM, and clears out stale debuginfo / debugsource packages * Disable the debug package, so no empty debugsource RPMs reach the local repo and rpmbuild no longer warns * Show a progress bar while downloading, and extract the snap quietly * Validate the --set-channel argument * Do not force X11 in the desktop launcher. Spotify selects it by default again, and forcing it breaks startup on a session without Xwayland * Leave /usr/bin/spotify-easyrpm alone when a package owns it * Check dependencies on scheduled runs, where sudo cannot prompt * Drop the unmaintained Mageia support, the tool is openSUSE / SLE only * zypper ar: disable the package cache for the local repo @stanislav-brabec
