I tried installing spotify-client using their sources, in Ubuntu 25.04
and it does not work.

```
$ spotify 

(spotify:14086): Gtk-WARNING **: 17:00:07.714: Theme parsing error: gtk-
widgets.css:1214:18: Not using units is deprecated. Assuming 'px'.

(spotify:14086): libayatana-appindicator-WARNING **: 17:00:07.949: libayatana-appindicator is deprecated. Please use libayatana-appindicator-glib in newly written code.
Illegal instruction
```

In Xubuntu 24.04, it works.

I tried running it with gdb, the message is the same:

```
(spotify:12918): libayatana-appindicator-WARNING **: 16:55:32.811: libayatana-appindicator is deprecated. Please use libayatana-appindicator-glib in newly written code.
```

The message “libayatana-appindicator is deprecated. Please use
libayatana-appindicator-glib in newly written code. Instruction non
permise” is found in many places on the web.

There is no package "libayatana-appindicator-glib" available in the
repositories.

Who could fix it?
