The GUI label is intentionally 2.2.4, this is related to it being a Linux-only launcher update, sorry if this causes any confusion

Note: It is important to keep PGP signature verification enabled, because this PKGBUILD does not verify sha256sums due to Jagex frequently releasing rebuilds with the same version number.

Don't forget to import the Jagex PGP key if installing for the first time:

gpg --keyserver hkps://keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-key AAC9264309E4D717441DB9527373B12CE03BEB4B

I've pushed 2.2.5 with a workaround for the OpenSSL issue, however it only works as long as capabilities aren't enabled, so you'll have to live with the audio issues until the next update.

Hi,

Update broke something else too

$ runescape-launcher

/usr/share/games/runescape-launcher/runescape: /usr/lib/libcurl.so.3: no version information available (required by /usr/share/games/runescape-launcher/runescape) /home/connor/Jagex/launcher/rs2client: error while loading shared libraries: libcrypto.so.1.0.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Looks like there is indeed a mistake there, it should have been linked against libssl 1.1 instead of 1.0 (as per the dependency list), this will be resolved

SSLv3_client_method

Yeah, that won't work on Arch as it disables SSLv3 support in OpenSSL... but it certainly looks like a typo for "SSLv23_client_method" (which enables all protocols including modern ones). Maybe it'll be fixed in 2.2.5.1?

(In the mean time, I could yolo it and patch the binary, but the actual downloaded client is also affected so that won't help in the end.)

Just a heads up that we have updated the launcher / apt repo to 2.2.5, incorporating various fixes https://secure.runescape.com/m=news/news-post-linux-client-improvements. Most relevant change is the new set of dependencies, which should hopefully be more version-stable going forward.

Also of note is the new postinst script that grants CAP_SETFCAP on the launcher binary - this is used ONLY to grant the permission to adjust thread priorities to the client binary, which allows the audio threads to be high priority, fixing a long-standing linux audio issue. If there is a nicer way you can come up with to grant CAP_SYS_NICE to the client binary then please do so instead.

Many thanks for keeping this package up to date!

(This my own opinion and is not an endorsement of this package)

With the Linux client improvements released today, I now get an error when launching:

/home/astraeus/Jagex/launcher/rs2client: symbol lookup error: /home/astraeus/Jagex/launcher/rs2client: undefined symbol: SSLv3_client_method, version OPENSSL_1.0.0

Probably useful settings for modern graphics cards (by u/Esp724):

The workaround has been incorporated into wrapper.sh (but with slightly lower latency value). If it doesn't help, edit the wrapper to bump the latency to 100ms or even 200ms, but then sound effects might become noticeably laggy.

ZenRen commented on 2019-09-07 18:46 (UTC)

Has there been an update on the sound issues? The forum post linked below is dead. Otherwise working and installed no problem.
