source list error

[Priyongshu]

hey guys! i was trying to install spotify on my linux machine, and one of the websites told me to use this line in the command terminal to install it-

• sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv-keys 0DF731E45CE24F27EEEB1450EFDC8610341D9410echo deb http://repository.spotify.com stable non-free | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/spotify.list

2. sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install spotify-client

the download didnt work but something went wrong with the source listing and now everytime i try to update the terminal using sudo apt update or even install some tool, i get this error:

E: Type 'Executing:' is not known on line 1 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/spotify.list
E: The list of sources could not be read.

its this error every time no different

please guide me on what to do since i am new to kali linux and i don't know two things about what this error means, i am just a peaceful white hat.

kali linux is designed for penetration testing and it's not properly adapt to install spotify, but if you want you can use spotify web on firefox

Hello,
I actually had the same problem, my solution was to just delete the new created "spotify.list" with the terminal:

1. Locate to the directory:

cd /etc/apt/sources.list.d/

2. Change the permissions (if needed, but you can do it anyways):

sudo chmod a+r+w+x spotify.list

3. Delete it

sudo rm spotify.list

4. Check if it worked

sudo apt-get update

5. Finished
