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The package is outdated only when the bootstrap version you get here is different from the bootstrap version you would get from minecraft.net when using the raw tarball.

If you don't have the official graphical drivers installed via AUR, you mostly can't play the game also. It just doesn't load it after logging in. I have a ATI Radeon HD 4K card, and fixed my issues with the ATI Catalyst AUR.

It gives me error "Permission Denied" always when I try "minecraft" in Terminal or by icon .desktop. chmod +x /usr/bin/minecraft Fixing the issue, is it the right way to do?

please update the PKGBUILD to reflect: Minecraft.jar is now minecraft.jar in the post install message, mention that it is 15 euro now that it is out of alpha.

Actually, you could change the 3 lines at the top to simply 'unset XMODIFIERS GTK_IM_MODULE QT_IM_MODULE'. Obviously, this isn't exactly a pressing issue, but you could always include it in an update in the future.

Newer version gets to the end of the loading screen and locks up. Here's a paste: http://aur.pastebin.com/GGpCxRGT

Thanks.

Changed dependencies and fixed keyboard issues, removed also optional dependencie on minecraft-data as Notch fixed those issues quite a long time ago.

Turns out that the keyboard problems, or at least mine, were caused by my Japanese input setup. Could you apply the following patch to the minecraft file, please? It should help some other people too. http://aur.pastebin.com/UNTtTGKr

The game doesn't seem to detect my keyboard's input after login. I tried to change my game's settings, etc to no avail. Perhaps an issue with java? If it matters, it's a TypeMatrix USB kb.

instead of `java -Xmx1024M -Xms512M -cp /usr/share/minecraft/Minecraft.jar net.minecraft.LauncherFrame` you should `exec java -Xmx1024M -Xms512M -cp /usr/share/minecraft/Minecraft.jar net.minecraft.LauncherFrame`
