Starting the Minecraft Launcher results in a crash after displaying: "Inspecting current version and preparing for update...".

Using the fallback 'C' locale.
Starting the launcher with "LC_ALL=C minecraft-launcher" avoids the crash.
For some reason this error also only shows up when using the command "minecraft-launcher" via terminal and not in the launcher_log.txt file.

I have the same issue on Manjaro.
Ironically, the official launcher was working fine before, but I had to build the AUR OpenJDK 16 because MultiMC would not start MC version 1.17 without it, which was working fine through the official launcher with OpenJDK 11 from the official Manjaro repo. I don't know if that is related at all, but I am not sure what else I changed since then.
Same for me, Manjaro too, I have jdk-openjdk version 16.0.1.u9-1 installed, installed libstdc++5 because someone on the aur site said you needed that, also deleted the ~/.minecraft/launcher folder, still, crashed after downloading all the files when attempting to launch the launcher.
For me too, starting with LC_ALL=C minecraft-launcher works.
OK
