*.deb File format not recognized

[Uberkreuz]

Hey people,

as a linux noob I can't really say that my problem is related to the installer, but I can't get it to work. If someone could point me into the right direction I would be grateful! I'm running openSUSE 13.1.

install-spotify rpm-build is already installed.

Spotify .deb package already exists:

~/rpmbuild/SOURCES/spotify-client_0.9.4.183.g644e24e.428-1_amd64.deb

Skipping download.

About to build spotify-client rpm; please be patient ...

Same error here. But can correct it using this thread https://github.com/aspiers/opensuse-spotify-installer/issues/33
