1.6.x modpacks do not show up in the launcher

[Barumann]

Basically none of the new modpacks shows up (horizons, lite, tech world 2...)

the most recent modpack is 1.5.x, no options in search disabled, launcher version is 1.3.2. I haven't played in a while (though I did play unleashed about a month ago) and am totally at a loss why.
I noticed a similar thread on the forums, where I had to make a new account on the launcher, which I did and it did not work.

Any idea's?

Edit: console log from launcher:

Spoiler
