I'm running Debian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye).

I'm trying to install the Tizonia cloud music player for the terminal. I ran the command:

curl -kL https://github.com/tizonia/tizonia-openmax-il/raw/master/tools/install.sh | bash

But I end up getting the following error:

E: Unable to locate package libspotify12

This stalls the installation, and also makes it impossible to clean up my mess using this command:

sudo apt-get -y remove --purge tizonia-all && sudo apt-get -y autoremove

Because Tizonia never ends up getting installed:

E: Unable to locate package tizonia-all

What source should I add to my Debian APT sources list to get access to libspotify12, in order for the installation to proceed normally?

libspotify is proprietary code, so it can't be hosted in Debian's repos. It is to be found in the developer Mopidy's own APT repository.

The README says this:

Install from APT archive

If you want to install the package, you can do so from the Mopidy APT archive at https://apt.mopidy.com/.

  1. Add the archive's GPG key:

    wget -q -O - https://apt.mopidy.com/mopidy.gpg | sudo apt-key add -

  2. Add the following to /etc/apt/sources.list, or if you have the directory /etc/apt/sources.list.d/, add it to a file called mopidy.list in that directory:

    sudo wget -q -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mopidy.list https://apt.mopidy.com/stretch.list

  3. Install packages:

    sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libspotify12 libspotify-dev

  • Thank you for your answer. I marked it as accepted, because it works, (up to date) but do consider that apt-key is deprecated. (You might want to edit that.) Thanks again.

  • This remark should be addressed to the developer Mopidy himself.

  • Fair, but it couldn't hurt to include an updated solution at the bottom of your answer, all without modifying the quoted readme. That's up to you. ;) Thanks again for your answer.
