New public key

New public key

My Question or Issue

It looks like the key used to sign Debian releases has updated, but there doesn't yet seem to be a way to download the new public key.

 

The old key can be downloaded at https://download.spotify.com/debian/pubkey_0D811D58.gpg, but trying to download https://download.spotify.com/debian/pubkey_B312C643.gpg (which is the same except for the new key ID) gives a 403 Forbidden error.

 

Does anyone know if there's a way to get the new key?

Same issue here! I don't see a way to get the new key. I assume the Spotify team needs to fix the link and then update this page: https://www.spotify.com/us/download/linux/

It works with this one:

curl -sS https://download.spotify.com/debian/pubkey_5E3C45D7B312C643.gpg | sudo apt-key add -

Just installed the Linux-client on MX Linux 19.4.  First using snap but the version of snap available  is to old. Gives error " Mount snap "spotify" (56) (snap "spotify" assumes unsupported features: snapd2.43 (try to update snapd and refresh the core snap))"

 

But Spotify is also available in MX Pakket installer, Testing package source. But it did not installed because of no public key.

 

This command solved that. It works now fine.

sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv-keys 5E3C45D7B312C643

 

Thanks for providing a Linux version!

Since apt-key is depreciated, the recommended way is:

 

curl -sS https://download.spotify.com/debian/pubkey_5E3C45D7B312C643.gpg | gpg --dearmor | sudo tee /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/repository-spotify-com-keyring.gpg

for arch-linux use:

curl -sS https://download.spotify.com/debian/pubkey_6224F9941A8AA6D1.gpg  | gpg --import -

as stated by gromit at https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/spotify

This is the option for the  most recent Debian (Bookworm) release through Flathub.
