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The package is outdated only when the bootstrap version you get here is different from the bootstrap version you would get from minecraft.net when using the raw tarball.

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)

I have a dual graphics setup. On Intel integrated graphics, it works fine (albiet slow) but when running using the NVIDIA card with proprietary drivers, I get the same problem as VK7HSE.

thanks for the package! However, I'm getting stuck on the pause screen on the latest update. Is anyone else having this issue? This is still better than what I could get running before.. "java -jar minecraft" with the latest jar just blackscreens currently

Just a heads up for anybody who is having the sticky key problem. There is a fix that works. http://getsatisfaction.com/mojang/topics/stuck_keys_under_linux_unrelated_to_losing_focus_or_opening_the_inventory

It works with the latest JRE/JDE in 64-bit... for a while. Eventually, I get back to the "can't get out of the escape menu" problem that I've had before. Sticking to 6u26 for the time being.

Just uploaded a new version using your fix wriggary. Tested it on 64bits with JRE or OpenJDK and worked on both.
