For people running LMS on FreeBSD (Or eg. in a jail on FreeNAS), and
wanting to use Spotify, Michael Herger's 'Spotty' plugin works with the
latest official LMS port for FreeBSD (7.9.1.g2017.07.11) without
problems.
What does NOT work is the helper application for Spotty. This has to be
compiled for FreeBSD. I did that earlier and posted the result in post
#950 in this thread. 

Now it's even easier. There is a plug-in available for just the helper
application for FreeBSD (Spotty helper application for FreeBSD 11).
Install that together with the "Spotty" plugin and you should be fine.

It could be that the Perl5 interface to SSL sockets (IO::Socket::SSL)
has to be installed also. I used ports: cd
/usr/ports/security/p5-IO-Socket-SSL/ and 'make install clean'. If you
want to use pkg: pkg install p5-IO-Socket-SSL.


Thank's again to Michael. His work helps very much to keep the
Squeezebox a usable device. For people using this, consider a donation
to him (see herger.net). It could make a difference while he is
struggling to make the 'connect' feature possible...
