Thank you for this script, but for me it crashes on the second command:

Any advice? Thanks!

I'm using Manjaro 21.1.2 XFCE.

I have search a bit and found that there is a package on Manjaro community repository for vala-panel-appmenu-xfce. You can remove the vala-panel-appmenu-xfce-git from the second command and later install it with pamac install vala-panel-appmenu-xfce

I ran added the following package before installing and the dependency problem was solved:
pamac install gobject-introspection
