This error occurs when I use spotifyd:

Caught panic with message: Failed to initialize DBus connection: D-Bus error: /usr/bin/dbus-launch terminated abnormally with the following error: Autolaunch error: X11 initialization failed.

I don't understand why this has happened.

Hi,

Which packages are you using and how do you start it?

I have syslog-ng, syslog-ng-runit, spotifyd-runit, spotifyd, and spotify-tui.

I've managed to change the error somehow, it now says:

Feb 14 03:04:01 zachens login[1064]: pam_elogind(login:session): Failed to connect to system bus: No such file or directory
Feb 14 03:06:43 zachens spotifyd[1688]: Caught panic with message: attempted to zero-initialize type `librespot_tremor::tremor_sys::ov_callbacks`, which is invalid
Feb 14 03:06:45 zachens spotifyd[1688]: Caught panic with message: called `Result::unwrap()` on an `Err` value: "SendError(..)"
Feb 14 03:06:45 zachens spotifyd[1688]: Player thread panicked!

I am not sure what I did to change it, I was fiddling around and forget to check.

I have it set with rsm.

It's looking very similar on my end, besides all the things you have setup.

Apparently the librespot_tremor has a few temporary fixes, but they all involve using rust cargo.
 
I can't really do that, as I got it via the universe repo?

So, it is a problem of librespot_tremor, which is probably a part of librespot rust AUR package (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/librespot-git), or so.

This package seems unupdated for quite some time, while it's code seems to have been updated (https://github.com/librespot-org/librespot-tremor), recently

We do not support AUR packages, because it is not our responsibility to do so.

You could try spotifyd-full-git and rust-nightly-bin from aur here: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/spotifyd-full-git/
and here respectively:  https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/rust-nightly-bin/
Although, as previously mentioned, these are unsupported packages.

Best regards.

The spotifyd on AUR  is systemd depended, versus spotifyd (https://gitea.artixlinux.org/linuxer/PKGBUILDS/src/branch/master/spotifyd/PKGBUILD#L34) on Universe

Appreciate it fellas.

I've just compiled it from source, and changed the cargo.toml to not include librespot_tremor.

For now, I've just been using scripts to start it.

So, case solved...

I didn't notice any systemd dependencies in the pkgbuild, and I was able to build the package w/o issues, so there are no build-time systemd dependencies. Perhaps there could be run-time issues? I didn't try using the software.

Best regards.

Hi,

Check the commented line #34 (https://gitea.artixlinux.org/linuxer/PKGBUILDS/src/branch/master/spotifyd/PKGBUILD#L34), of our build

Regards

Yes, I didn't notice that. However, it isn't the only thing to install a systemd .service. I have nine such .service files on my Artix Plasma system in /usr/lib/systemd/user;
"app-org.kde.spectacle.service, at-spi-dbus-bus.service, glib-pacrunner.service, plasma-kglobalaccel.service, plasma-kwin_wayland.service, plasma-kwin_x11.service, xdg-desktop-portal.service, xdg-document-portal.service, xdg-permission-store.service."
They are annoying to see, but do not seem to cause any issues beyond that.  ;)

Best regards.

yeah, at least on this case, there are not any leftovers, from spotifyd (Universe). :-D

Regards
