the temporary fix is to install the 'arduino-avr-core' package
$ sudo pacman -S arduino-avr-core
this will probably be a dependency for the next version
Updated by ani about 5 years ago
I can start Arduino now that I installed arduino-avr-core.

arduino-avr-core is now listed as an optional dependency. Starts without issues on v1.8.19 running with jre8-openjdk 8.332.u09
