No Spotify connect on Arm6 RPIs - iambrian - 06-27-2022

Playing around with an old Pi Zero W V1.1 (to make a tiny player for the campervan)

With Moode 8.1.1 (Legacy) all seems to work well except for Spotify Connect.

pgrep -l librespot shows no librespot running

trying to run librespot -V manually gets "Illegal instruction"

Comparing the file sizes of /usr/bin/librespot with my Raspberry Pi V3 (Arm7) system shows the same file size (6221444) which makes me wonder if the Zero W 1.1 running on Arm6 has the Arm7 version of librespot?

Not got time over the next couple of days to try and compile librespot on the Pi Zero W 1.1 to see if that fixes things.

@iambrian you are totally correct; the librespot 0.4.1 is build voor ARM v7 while 0.3.1 was build voor v6:

Code:
pi@bullseye:~ $ librespot --version

librespot 0.4.1 88e64bd (Built on 2022-05-27, Build ID: bWqW2G5g, Profile: release)

pi@bullseye:~ $ readelf -A /usr/bin/librespot

Attribute Section: aeabi

File Attributes

  Tag_CPU_name: "ARM v7"

  Tag_CPU_arch: v7

Will try to build a new package.

New package build for ARM 6 is finished, but has to wait till integrated in a next moOde update.

If you can't wait until the update, there is a workarround, if you are not put off by using the command-line ssh web termininal.
Just downgrading from 0.4.1 to 0.3.1.

Code:
sudo moode-apt-mark unhold

sudo apt install -y librespot=0.3.1-1moode2

sudo moode-apt-mark hold

And then reboot.

Wow!!!!! Brilliantly quick response - thanks.

Workaround tested and all working. One minor correction - the librespot downgrade install needed --allow-downgrades

Code:
sudo apt install -y librespot=0.3.1-1moode2 --allow-downgrades

Thanks again for such prompt response.
