This guide shows you how to install spotify client on openSUSE 12.2

As there is no native openSUSE rpm, we will have to make one ourselves. Here are the steps:

1. browse to http://repository.spotify.com/pool/non-free/s/spotify/ and download the appropriate 32- or 64 bit version.

2. install the rpm package 'alien' to convert .deb to .rpm's. This can be found in the opensuse repos, to te exact here: http://software.opensuse.org/package/alien

3. use alien to convert: 

#alien -r spotify-clientxxxxx.deb
spotify-client-0.8.4.103.g9cb177b.260-2.x86_64.rpm generated

4. then, install the rpm: 

#zypper in spotify-client*.rpm

you will get a libcrypto dependency error, but you can ignore that, choose 2:

5. typ the following: 

# ln -s /usr/lib64/libnss3.so /usr/lib64/libnss3.so.1d
# ln -s /usr/lib64/libnssutil3.so /usr/lib64/libnssutil3.so.1d
# ln -s /usr/lib64/libsmime3.so /usr/lib64/libsmime3.so.1d 
# ln -s libplc4.so /usr/lib64/libplc4.so.0d
# ln -s libnspr4.so /usr/lib64/libnspr4.so.0d

6. that should do it. Have fun!
