Cannot start launcher on Ubuntu 22.04

I can't start Minecraft on both Ubuntu 16.04 and Ubuntu 22.04.

When I open terminal and write down 'minecraft-launcher', a updating window was opened, and it started updating. But this work won't be a long time because it will fail after a while.

At first, I think it's my Ubuntu's version isn't allowed, so I update it to 22.04.

But when I start launcher on Ubuntu 22.04 again, it showed a link twice in terminal and started updating, when it updated half, it seemed stop, after a long time, the window was closed by itself and failed in updating again! At last, it left a sentence in terminal:

    'MessageBox(Minecraft Launcher): Unable to update the Minecraft Native Launcher.'

I can't understand reason, I have tried a lot:

    - reinstall launcher

    - update offline

    - change java version: OpenJDK to Oracle java, java 18 to java 8

    - reinstall 'Minecraft.deb'

    - remove Launcher on Windows 10 ( I have two systems on computer )

All of them didn't work. I think maybe the reason is about two systems.

Hope you can give me some advice to solve this problem.

Hi there!

Is .minecraft folder created during attempted installation?

Hello! Thank you for your advice.

I read this two and delete files in .minecraft/launcher, then I reinstall and start launcher, but there's a new error:

    LZMA error from LzmaDec_DecodeToBuf: 1

    UnLZMA failed: resetting state.

    MessageBox(Minecraft Launcher): Unable to update the Minecraft Native Launcher.

Hope you can help me again, thanks~
