Unofficial builds of 0.6.13 version does not include Microsoft account support. When building current 0.6.13 version from portage tree, adding microsoft account is currently not possible ⁽¹⁾. However it is possible to build microsoft support, but in this case branding should be removed : > If you want to build microsoft support yourself > see https://github.com/MultiMC/MultiMC5/blob/develop/notsecrets/Secrets.cpp > (also note that to comply with the license you need to remove the branding from custom builds) Please provide microsoft support into current current multimc ebuild, or please provide a new multimc-bin ebuild with official build. Thank you :) 1. https://github.com/MultiMC/MultiMC5/issues/4113
It seems that I accidentally hitted a very hot topic ⁽¹⁾. -bin ebuild would be very fine to me ^^ https://github.com/MultiMC/MultiMC5/issues/4087#issuecomment-925049483

We also keep the non-bin versions for users who e.g. wish to apply patches https://github.com/MultiMC/MultiMC5/issues/4113 https://github.com/MultiMC/MultiMC5/issues/4087 Closes: https://bugs.gentoo.org/814404 Package-Manager: Portage-3.0.23, Repoman-3.0.3 Signed-off-by: Andrew Ammerlaan <andrewammerlaan@gentoo.org> games-action/multimc-bin/Manifest | 1 + games-action/multimc-bin/metadata.xml | 28 +++++++++++++ games-action/multimc-bin/multimc-bin-1.5.1.ebuild | 48 +++++++++++++++++++++++ 3 files changed, 77 insertions(+)
What a mess.... (I'll omit the rant about how MS ruins all good things) Anyway, I added a -bin version, and things should be working now. I'll keep the non-bin version around for users who wish to compile from source or apply patches and things like that (and have not yet migrated to MS accounts). The -bin and non-bin version can be installed simultaneously. Enjoy!
