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The package is outdated only when the bootstrap version you get here is different from the bootstrap version you would get from minecraft.net when using the raw tarball.

I wonder, should gnome-keyring be an optional dependency then?

How about using kwallet?

@ckuiper: thanks, that was the solution (installed gnome-keyring (even under KDE) and it saved the password)

I think secrets are now stored in a keyring now? So might need to set a keyring up for remember me to work.

"..my minecraft password isn't saved, I have to re-enter it everytime.."

I have the same issue, have to re-enter the password every time i start the launcher. Reinstalling and deleting the ~/.minecraft folder didn't help

Minecraft refuses to boot up and nothing comes on screen ever since the launcher was updated.

Crashes on me on launch recently. https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MCL-17531

Launcher requires libstdc++5 to show installer, as per bug ticket https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MCL-18214

After doing pacman -S libstdc++5 the launcher shows the Minecraft installer.

jdk 16 you mean, and unfortunately official arch openjdk is still stuck on 15

Using jre from aur right now

Could also use the built in one which I think the launcher downloads automatically

EDIT: official openjdk is on 16 now, yay
