The package version is the version of the launcher bootstrap - the part that actually downloads and updates the launcher.

That means the version number of the actual launcher (2.x.xxx) is different from the version here (9xx+) on a fundamental level, and should not be compared.

The package is outdated only when the bootstrap version you get here is different from the bootstrap version you would get from minecraft.net when using the raw tarball.

@jpegxguy fair. That can be fixed easily :)

Well, we now have a bootstrap on Linux, similar to what the other platforms had for years.

That means the launcher updates itself, and you can switch between release/beta from inside of it.

We also updated the CEF (chromium embedded framework) to a version that isn't from 2016... And that may affect a few things. So please file bugs on https://bugs.mojang.com/ when you see them. The sooner, the better.

The other major change is the launcher installing a JRE for you. While that's nice, we also need the dependencies for a JRE, and that's why I'm keeping the java-runtime dependency. Not for actually using a java runtime from the system, but to get all of the dependencies for one from the system so our bundled one can work.

@MartinX3 are you using a switchable/dual graphics setup? This may be related: https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MCL-17125

Now the screen of the launcher is just black.

Great to see the changes to the update mechanism.

I noticed, after looking at the package list, that /usr/bin/minecraft-launcher exists only as a symlink to /opt/minecraft-launcher/minecraft-launcher, and nothing else in in the /opt subdirectory.

In that case I think it'd be better if the minecraft-launcher executable existed immediately in the /usr/bin/ location, without any folders/files under /opt

minecraft-launcher /opt/
minecraft-launcher /opt/minecraft-launcher/
minecraft-launcher /opt/minecraft-launcher/minecraft-launcher
minecraft-launcher /usr/
minecraft-launcher /usr/bin/
minecraft-launcher /usr/bin/minecraft-launcher

Can't update your package? Yeah, i couldn't either, so here's the fix: Edit your PKGBUILD file and change these lines: pkgver=2.2.2159 ; source=( https://launcher.mojang.com/download/Minecraft.tar.gz minecraft-launcher.desktop https://launcher.mojang.com/download/minecraft-launcher.svg ) ; sha256sums=( 'a7d75ef47c8e940a56c8fad0c9a68f41df8d5df85df18377c53e3da5749c645c' '677e2442a1ae83cc58d8d403666e508129e97dbed37fdfafdceac6101dc0dee7' '35c2bcaeb09fa4b8864e9422fd66bf60847706f8b4400ec4a66ba6436b101f71' )

Jumor, l'autre y faisait trop le BG genre "oui merci d'avoir appelé la hotline des paquets dupliqués, votre message à été envoyé à la poubelle avec succès", maintenant son vieux package en double qui servait à rien s'est fait supprimer, fallais écouter, cheh

Thank you for holding. Your call is important to us. Please continue to hold and the next available agent will answer your call.

To address the claims in the comments: the AUR guidelines specifically mention there should be no duplicate AUR packages either - not just repo duplicates. One package is a .deb, another a .tar of the same software - that's a clear duplicate. Besides that's having a debian-specific binary available when there's a generic one is hardly useful (another criterion for AUR submission). Merging this to minecraft-launcher.

To get the latest version, change the following lines in your PKGBUILD file: pkgver=2.2.1867 ; sha256sums=( '5e19e3459015fb28bc54df588b6613320281d953bc2f394a28a95465637eeabe' '677e2442a1ae83cc58d8d403666e508129e97dbed37fdfafdceac6101dc0dee7' '35c2bcaeb09fa4b8864e9422fd66bf60847706f8b4400ec4a66ba6436b101f71' )

Why this is marked as out of date?
