I seem to be having a different issue than what others are describing. Suddenly today, I an unable to start the launcher without getting a generic "An unexpected issue occurred" message. Here's what I get in the terminal:

$ minecraft-launcher
sh: line 1: orca: command not found
Created browser window for reuse: 0x1600004
[34399:34552:0308/133050.212343:ERROR:mime_util_xdg.cc(137)] Invalid mime.cache file does not contain null prior to ALIAS_LIST_OFFSET=44
[34399:34552:0308/133055.416488:ERROR:cast_crl.cc(443)] CRL - Verification failed.

Edit: I found that deleting the webcache2 directory in the .minecraft directory fixes the issue for me.

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The package is outdated only when the bootstrap version you get here is different from the bootstrap version you would get from minecraft.net when using the raw tarball.

@Jristz have a look at http://bash.cyberciti.biz/guide//etc/profile.d @Bombstrike Actually, if you're writing the script yourself, it would be great to stick it in the above folder.

@BombStrike I think the script is a good idea, especially if you mention it during the installation proccess.

@arronax - actually, i don't have ttf-dejavu but ttf-ms-fonts (from the aur) and it works fine for me.

<deleted-account> commented on 2012-10-29 08:56 (UTC)

Please add ttf-dejavu as dependencies. If this package is not installed, minecraft will instantly abort after starting

If you have jdk7 installed the only form to fun minecraft is export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/opt/java/jre/lib/amd64" java -jre minecraft.jar is possible to add any thipe of workaround for it in a 64bit machine runing jdk7/jre7???

BombStrike commented on 2012-08-23 02:33 (UTC)

@Willrandship Yes it would indeed be nice, but that's not possible as the .minecraft directory created in the user home is done by the minecraft launcher itself and there is no "clean" way for me to act upon it (unless modifying/injecting code in the launcher, but that souldn't be done in a "vanilla" package). The best I could do is provide a small script, like minecraft-fix-lwjgl.sh that would do it, if you are fine with this.

Babets commented on 2012-08-17 10:35 (UTC)

I agree with Willrandship proposal :)

I'm getting stuck on the loading screen, it says "Done loading" and then it doesn't load anything. I've tried downloading LWGKJL or deleting the .minecraft folder (that doesn't have files on it, just the bin folder).

You have an error in your LD_LIBRARY_PATH export. By stating LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$LD_LIBRARY_PATH: ... ", you're giving path precedence to the original LD_LIBRARY_PATH. We want to have the jdk7 libraries take priority over the broken ones, so it should be added last. This is a source package that includes the LD_LIBRARY_PATH fix (tested working) as well as some package cleanup: http://8bitboobs.com/stuff/minecraft-latest-19.src.tar.gz Please make sure your environment is set correctly for jdk7. If echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH displays anything about jdk6, log out and log back in.
