Vortex can't open external links about modorganizer2-linux-installer

That's a Chromium error. Check if all your software is up to date and if updating doesn't work try setting a non Chromium based browser as your default (Firefox, for example).

Thanks for the pointer.

Using firefox works. It's strange since chromium works fine when using xdg-open outside of wine...

Extra info

$ xdg-open http://example.com
Opening in existing browser session.

The actual error seems to be related to a ffmpeg library:

$ ldd $(which ffmpeg) | grep libavcodec 
	libavcodec.so.58 => /usr/lib/libavcodec.so.58 (0x00007efbfdb2e000)

$ pacman -Ss libav

Purely speculation, but I wonder if maybe the library path gets borked somehow at some point?

Changing the wine version in my lutris config from lutris-4.13-x86_64 (default) to System (4.16 (staging)) fixes the issue, so I suspect it is caused by a upstream wine bug fixed between 4.13 and 4.16.

Perhaps this installer should specify a minimum required wine version? I'll leave this open for you to decide if this is something you can/will/should try to fix.

The installer does specify a Wine version, current release has it set to lutris-4.12.1-x86_64. I'll update it.
