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The package is outdated only when the bootstrap version you get here is different from the bootstrap version you would get from minecraft.net when using the raw tarball.

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???

@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.

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.

It might be a good idea to depend on lwjgl (also AUR) and do a symlink to the .minecraft/bin/natives directory. It should fix a lot of people's LWGJL woes.

Indeed, now I get the invalid checksum, sorry about that. Updating now

Not really sure what you downloaded and what you testet, but: http://www.minecraft.net/download/minecraft.jar (in the source array of the PKGBUILD) AND https://s3.amazonaws.com/MinecraftDownload/launcher/minecraft.jar (which is the final destination after 302) have this md5sum (from where I download, possibly different due to some CDN): bb99785000fdb3ebadd61a4a347fa042 (proxy/caching problem?) The md5 in your PKGBUILD (-17) is: 3ce30e0c30d145ebfafda83d361bc2cc Yes, possibly the old launcher still works to update the game itself to 1.3.1. We still need to update the PKGBUILD as the md5sum has changed for the url we have in the source array. It is not up to us to decide that this launcher update "isn't worth it". For somebody installing the package from the AUR (without the old jar) it just doesn't work.
