Do you have the mpv package installed on your system?

Do you have the mpv package installed on your system?

I tried installing the mpv software package, but I still get this error message.

What does ldconfig -p | grep libmpv output?

Do you have mpv-libs installed? If not, try installing it and running spotube again.

Still can't install, and if i use appimage to run,it shows:
[xiaozhangup@xiaozhangup 桌面]$ ./Spotube-linux-x86_64.AppImage package:media_kit_libs_linux registered.

Depending upon your distribution, you can install the libmpv package to make shared library available globally.

You can't install mpv-libs? What about mpv-devel?

[xiaozhangup]

That's my install command

If i install mpv-devel, it will be:

Is your AppImage the latest version?

[xiaozhangup]

Is your AppImage the latest version?

yes

[RTTEXFile]

I have no more suggestions except the dangerous sudo ln -rsv /lib64/libmpv.so.2 /lib64/libmpv.so.1.

[xiaozhangup]

I have no more suggestions except the dangerous sudo ln -rsv /lib64/libmpv.so.2 /lib64/libmpv.so.1.

So, can't it be installed directly on Fedora? Can this issue be resolved in future updates?

[KRTirtho]

@xiaozhangup please use Flatpak version for now

[xiaozhangup]

@xiaozhangup please use Flatpak version for now

The Flatpak version of the tray has an issue where the tray icon cannot be displayed correctly on Gnome, instead showing "..."

[RTTEXFile]

I have no more suggestions except the dangerous sudo ln -rsv /lib64/libmpv.so.2 /lib64/libmpv.so.1.

Did this work?

no

The Flatpak version of the tray has an issue where the tray icon cannot be displayed correctly on Gnome, instead showing "..."

The flatpak sandboxing is messing with icon path thus this issue occurs, I'm trying to find a solution

[KRTirtho]

Keep an eye on #541 for this

[piko-piko]

Same issue on Artix here. Using appimage, i have mpv installed. libmpv.so libmpv.so.2 libmpv.so.2.1.0 are present in /lib64 and /usr/lib/, sudo ln -rsv /lib64/libmpv.so.2 /lib64/libmpv.so.1 did not help

[rayenghanmi]

Facing the same problem on my Fedora 38 as well.
Any solution?

[xiaozhangup]

use flatpak

[GoldenReverie]

I can also confirm that i can only use the flatpak to install on fedora 38 currently. Even using Yum yields no results. "libmpv.so.1()(64bit)" appears to be a misnamed or unique version of the mpv package?

[soulis-1256]

I'm sorry, but isn't the problem that Fedora 38's mpv-libs x86_64 package provides a newer version of the required shared library? (version 2 instead of 1). Given that, wouldn't you need to try to build Spotube using the newer version of the lib and then split the release for rpm into fedora 38 and anything older than 38?

@xiaozhangup CC: @KRTirtho @rayenghanmi

Flutter's AppImage generation tool, used by Spotube, has a poorly configured AppRun script which sets LD_LIBRARY_PATH to usr/lib. On most 64-bit systems, mpv is being installed into usr/lib64. Until this oversight is fixed upstream, you will have to modify the AppImage manually. Please follow the steps mentioned here: #643 (comment)

Edit: This issue has been generalized and filed upstream at leanflutter/flutter_distributor#139

Do you understand what relative path and absolute path mean?
LD_LIBRARY_PATH points to the bundled libmpv which should not have a problem at the first place.

[brvn0]

Problem - as expected - is also occurring with Fedora 39

[Mubelotix]

Same problem on Ubuntu 23.10

[fabmazz]

Same problem here in Fedora 40, can't install because

nothing provides libmpv.so.1()(64bit) needed by spotube-3.7.0+31-31.x86_64 from @commandline

The package mpv-libs provides libmpv.so.2()(64bit). https://packages.fedoraproject.org/pkgs/mpv/mpv-libs/fedora-40.html

Does the package really need a specific version of the library?

[Mubelotix]

I'm not really sure that's the problem as creating a symlink of libmpv.so.1 to libmpv.so.2 didn't change anything. But I might be wrong

[Morgan-DCL]

Nop, symlink doesn't work either. Can't get trough install. Tried Flatpack, same issues as #1564

[fabiuz]

I use Fedora 38, this problem occurred here too.
After several analyses, I discovered how to work around this problem, see: #1931 (comment)

[universish]

is not feodra. it is fedora. please correct the title. thanks
