Description Mario Kicherer 2014-01-16 16:46:11 UTC

I just emerged spotify and when I click "Sign up" I get the following error message and nothing happens:

/bin/sh: error while loading shared libraries: libudev.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

A browser pops up after "Sign up" if I start it this way:

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/spotify/spotify-client/Data/ spotify

I guess it's not good to place the libudev.so.0 symlink in /usr/lib. Maybe a wrapper script would suffice.
