Description

GNOME Shell search can show Spotify results through a DBus-activated provider. The package installs `org.gnome.Spotify.SearchProvider.ini`, a DBus service file, a systemd user service, and the Python provider under `/usr/lib/spotify-search-provider`. Search queries and Spotify API access may expose account context, so tokens and desktop search history should be considered.

How to run

/usr/lib/spotify-search-provider/spotify-search-provider.py
