Song not available on Linux client

Solved!

Song not available on Linux client

  1. Your device and operating system: Antergos fully upgraded
  2. Type of Spotify account you have (Free/ Premium): Premium
  3. The app version of Spotify you’re using: 1.0.66.478-1
  4. Brief description of the issue: Cannot listen to Radiohead - In Rainbows and - Hail to the Thief
  5. Steps to reproduce the issue:

 

  • search rad
  • open Radiohead
  • scroll down to 'In Rainbows' and play it
  • Blue bar on top with the message: 'This song is not available. If you have the file on your computer you can import it.'
  • Playback stops and nothing else happens
  • I tried reinstalling and clearing cache

6. Attach the spotify-dump.txt ( $HOME/spotify-dump.txt ) from Advanced troubleshooting 

 

/usr/share/spotify/spotify: /usr/lib/libcurl.so.3: no version information available (required by /usr/share/spotify/spotify)
/usr/share/spotify/spotify: /usr/lib/libcurl.so.3: no version information available (required by /usr/share/spotify/spotify)
/proc/self/exe: /usr/lib/libcurl.so.3: no version information available (required by /proc/self/exe)

I had the same problem but i manage to fix it by disableling the local files in settings.

This really shouldn't be a thing.

I had the same problem wtih the version I downloaded from Ubuntu Software. I had to rollback to a previous version (1.0.69.336.g7edcc575).
I typed the following command line to install the previous version:
sudo apt-get install spotify-client

This didn't work for me
