Describe the bug
Whenever I try to launch an armeabi-v7a version of Minecraft, throws a Launcher Error about dependencies, but I can't install those dependencies because they apparently do not exist on Fedora's aarch64 repos.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Open the launcher
  2. Select an armeabi-v7a version of Minecraft
  3. Press the PLAY button
  4. See that it doesn't work
  5. Use the provided command to install the necessary dependencies

Expected behavior
The dependencies are able to be installed.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

  • OS: Fedora Workstation 41 (asahi-remix aarch64)
  • Version: 1.2.1.13693625986.1 (build 13693625986)
  • Installation Type: DNF/RPM

Additional context
It's not a problem with the launcher itself, it's a problem with Fedora's repos, but I've been trying to look for a solution in Google and I couldn't find one, so I hope someone here can help.

Does an m-series mac can run armv7 packages?

I don't really maintain the armv7 implementation anymore so now no official packages from my side contain it, you can still build it from source.

You can find an arm32 prebuilt in this unoffical nightly arm64 package, if certain arm32 libraries are installed it might load. (https://github.com/minecraft-linux/mcpelauncher-manifest/releases/download/nightly/Minecraft_Bedrock_Launcher-bookworm-sdl3-arm64-v1.0.0.645.AppImage).

However this had never ever been tested on a large (16k instead of 4k) page size kernel like asahi linux

This indicates that armv7 packages are not working / nobody supports this in that distribution

Well I'll test the build you sent. It's not a big deal if it doesn't work tho, I just wanted to live my old days again (0.5.x).

That won't work, thats far below anything this launcher were ever usable for.

Everything below 1.1.0 support is no longer maintained.

v0.12 was the lower end of working versions
