This is current/arm64, with spotifyd-0.4.1.
The pkg readme says

  Authentication via OAuth must be set up using 

  $ spotifyd authenticate -c .

  This will redirect you to a web browser to complete the OAuth process,
  then place a credentials.json file in the current directory.

Running "spotifyd authenticate -c ." says

  [␛[37mINFO␛[0m] Loading config from "/etc/spotifyd.conf"

[␛[37mINFO␛[0m] OAuth server listening on 127.0.0.1:8000

and when I point my browser to 127.0.0.1:8000,
the page merely says

  "Go back to your terminal :)"

where I am told

  Error: 
     0: token retrieval failed
     1: Auth code param not found in URI http://localhost

  Location:
        src/oauth.rs:63


Am I missing something obvious?

It also says 

	Backtrace omitted. Run with RUST_BACKTRACE=1 environment variable
	to display it.
 Run with RUST_BACKTRACE=full to include
	source snippets.


but either of those just say "empty backtrace".
