[xlcore] Game Config Path parsed incorrectly in AUR build(s)

Update disclaimer

  • [X] Yes, I have checked and my issue is not related to FFXIV updating and plugins not working correctly.

What did you do?

  1. On an Arch-based, non-SteamOS system, Install xivlauncher-git from AUR.
  2. Launch and set Game Path and Game Config Path to existing directories outside of /home/<user>/.xlcore, containing existing FFXIV game files and config files respectively
  3. Start Game. FFXIV launches successfully from existing game files, but does not load existing config files. New config directory is generated at [Game Path]/game/ UserPath=Z:/[Game Config Path]

For example, I have the following directories in my config:

Game Path: /home/taylor/ffxiv/SquareEnix/FINAL FANTASY XIV - A Realm Reborn/ Game Config Path: /home/taylor/ffxiv/xivconf/

Ultimately, the launcher creates a new directory with new configs in the following location: /home/taylor/ffxiv/SquareEnix/FINAL FANTASY XIV - A Realm Reborn/game/ UserPath=Z:/home/taylor/ffxiv/xivconf

Side Note, the Game Config Path field also seems to be unable to handle spaces in the path entry. My configs were originally located at /home/taylor/ffxiv/FINAL FANTASY XIV - A Realm Reborn, and the config path that it generated was /home/taylor/ffxiv/SquareEnix/FINAL FANTASY XIV - A Realm Reborn/game/ UserPath=Z:/home/taylor/ffxiv/Reborn
