My Question or Issue

Debian package installation description on page https://www.spotify.com/us/download/linux/ is out of date.

The key for repository.spotify.com expired. The key in question:

931FF8E79F0876134EDDBDCCA87FF9DF48BF1C90

[vulnerability]

I recently updated Debian 9.5 Stretch and got the same error when I apt-get update - Kernel: x86_64 Linux 4.9.0-7-amd64

Err:7 http://repository.spotify.com stable InRelease

This fixes it: https://community.spotify.com/t5/Desktop-Linux/deb-package-signing-key-at-ubuntu-keyserver-expired/m...

Oops, posted it before trying the command, it actually didn't update the key 😞

I have the same issue

I believe all linux users are facing this problem currently. And changing repo keys without announcement is not the smartest idea.

[diego-go]

I got the same problem when updating my packages, what is going on?

Err:12 http://repository.spotify.com stable InRelease    
  Las siguientes firmas no fueron válidas: EXPKEYSIG EFDC8610341D9410 Spotify Public Repository Signing Key <tux@spotify.com>

Same problem too. The repo keys are expired. It looks like spotify have already uploaded a new pgp key:

$ gpg --search-keys tux@spotify.com
gpg: searching for "tux@spotify.com" from hkp server keys.gnupg.net
(1)	Spotify Public Repository Signing Key <tux@spotify.com>
	  4096 bit RSA key 48BF1C90, created: 2018-05-23, expires: 2019-08-16
(2)	Spotify Public Repository Signing Key <tux@spotify.com>
	  4096 bit RSA key 341D9410, created: 2017-07-25, expires: 2018-07-25 (expired)

I tried to import the new key to my database, but the repos are still signed with the old key (http://repository-origin.spotify.com/dists/stable/)

Please check the pinned thread.

A link without context. 

What information of the pinned thread are you referring to?

Quick glance: The thread is from 2017 and refers to the same installation page which is reported to be outdated (hence the problem). Am I missing something? 

[Haldar]

Not working for me also. I'm with Ubuntu 18.04
