How To Install libclastfm on Fedora 36
Introduction

What is libclastfm
libclastfm is an unofficial C-API for the Last.fm web service written with libcurl. It was written because the official CBS Interactive Last.fm library requires Nokia QT, which is usually not desired when using GTK+ based distros.

Due to the naming conflict with the official last.fm library, this library will install as “libclastfm”.
