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The package is outdated only when the bootstrap version you get here is different from the bootstrap version you would get from minecraft.net when using the raw tarball.

Hi! I know my machine is a bit outdated, but I think it could handle Minecraft. Although, I'm having some problems here. Perhaps someone here can have some insight of what happening here... All I get when I try to run it, is a black (window) screen after the download. In my terminal I see some reports: http://www.dpaste.de/NJVOn/ I'm using the opensource ATI drivers (Radeon X1200 Series, junk right? I know... =/ Perhaps the culprit of the problem.) with openjdk. I have tested with jdk and got about the same results... Thanks in advance!

1.8 or most likely 1.9prerelease now works on proprietary ati drivers. Running at average of 90fps of 6850. But sometimes the keys stick and you walk keep walking.

Would you consider adding "-server" to the java options in /usr/bin/minecraft? It doesn't seem to affect anything negatively, and I get a ~10fps performance boost from it here.

@VK7HSE I just submitted the bug here: http://getsatisfaction.com/mojang/topics/could_not_choose_glx13_config

Looks like you are correct. There are two completely different files called both "minecraft.jar". Who would think of such a mess.. I don't particularly like it, but thanks for the clarification ;-)

@JonnyJD: that's not how it works. The PKGBUILD is for the minecraft launcher, which is versioned independently from what you and I think of when we think of minecraft. The launcher keeps minecraft proper up-to-date, and thus it's always "latest." The MD5 only changes when the launcher is updated (last when they added those links on the right hand side). Make sense?

JonnyJD commented on 2011-09-12 12:31 (UTC)

You should include the correct version number in the PKGBUILD. "latest" is not helping and you have to change the md5 for new versions anyways.

While installing via yaourt, running the package through namcap returned the following: minecraft W: Description should not contain the package name. minecraft W: Dependency 'sh' on your system is a testing release minecraft E: Missing custom license directory (usr/share/licenses/minecraft) minecraft E: Dependency java-environment detected and not included (found class files usr/share/minecraft/minecraft.jar) minecraft E: Dependency bash detected and not included (programs ['sh'] needed in scripts ['usr/bin/minecraft']) minecraft W: Dependency included and not needed ('java-runtime') minecraft W: Dependency included and not needed ('xorg-server-utils') minecraft W: Dependency included and not needed ('openal')

For anyone still having issues I'd suggest sticking with openjdk6 or a downgraded version of the jre package instead of jre7, at least until notch decides to releases a new version that fixes the issues (maybe in 1.8 ?).

I've seen fixes for this on the net, ie: http://getsatisfaction.com/mojang/topics/minecraft_doesnt_work_with_java_7 but they don't seem to fix it. This here is the problem (appears after setting user): Exception in thread "Minecraft main thread" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: /home/sirrom/.minecraft/bin/natives/liblwjgl64.so: /home/sirrom/.minecraft/bin/natives/liblwjgl64.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32 (Possible cause: architecture word width mismatch) at java.lang.ClassLoader$NativeLibrary.load(Native Method) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadLibrary0(ClassLoader.java:1750) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadLibrary(ClassLoader.java:1646) at java.lang.Runtime.load0(Runtime.java:787) at java.lang.System.load(System.java:1022) at org.lwjgl.Sys$1.run(Sys.java:69) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at org.lwjgl.Sys.doLoadLibrary(Sys.java:65) at org.lwjgl.Sys.loadLibrary(Sys.java:81) at org.lwjgl.Sys.<clinit>(Sys.java:98) at org.lwjgl.opengl.Display.<clinit>(Display.java:132) at net.minecraft.client.Minecraft.a(SourceFile:244) at net.minecraft.client.Minecraft.run(SourceFile:716) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:679)
