Arch Linux X-Plane

After a fresh install, X-Plane will silently fail to load on Arch Linux and will simply say "Will init world". Running the executable from a terminal will not log anything that causes the sim not to load and the Log.txt does not show anything either.

This is what I needed to install to make X-Plane run:

sudo pacman -S $(pacman -Ssq noto-fonts)

This command installs all packages starting with noto-fonts. noto-fonts-* does not work.

For Volanta, also install fuse2:

sudo pacman -S fuse
