Global Menu does not work on XFCE with vala-panel-appmenu; the same binary works fine with KDE's global menu (ui.use_global_menubar set to true in both cases). Tried it on two current Manjaro installations, one with KDE and the other with XFCE and vala-panel-appmenu. Any thoughts what might be missing on/for the XFCE installation?

@WorMzy - built fine using pkgctl... wonder what/where the difference is.

Built fine using the latest python2 package, in seven minutes on my system. If you're sure it's not your system resources, then the only other thing I can suggest is using a clean chroot (if you aren't already). I build using pkgctl build -I ../python2/python2-2.7.18-11-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst

Hm, I'm using an older version -- 2.7.18-8. I'll see if I can reproduce with the latest.

I'm not sure what you mean by "your python2 package" btw, I don't maintain a python package.

@WorMzy - when I switch to your python2 package, I get other errors:

Could not find platform independent libraries <prefix>
Could not find platform dependent libraries <exec_prefix>
Consider setting $PYTHONHOME to <prefix>[:<exec_prefix>]
ImportError: No module named site
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build().
    Aborting...

So I've switched back to 2.7.18-11. Need suggestions.

@WorMzy - what version of python2 did you use for the build? I'm using 2.7.18-11. I should also add that since python2 is being deprecated, many of my python2 packages have, over time, been lost to attrition. Is there anything lto-specific you can think of that my environment might be missing?

WorMzy: my quad-core system has 16gb of RAM and almost 6tb of disk space, with 32gb of swap - I doubt resources are my issue. This build was the only thing running other than KDE/Plasma and never showed more than 8gb of RAM usage. I had already gone ahead and found your 33.7 binary and used the 33.6 PKGBUILD, modified, to create a v33.7 palemoon release, but I've always preferred doing the build myself, which has rarely, if ever, failed. However, a google search on "ld: fatal error: lto-wrapper failed" turns up a ton of complaints, including the most recent comment for palemoon-gtk3. Perhaps this is an lto issue...

jghodd: I can't reproduce that here. Since it happens late on, my suspicion is that your memory is full (check journalctl for OOM events). Did the build really take four and a half hours to reach that point? Maybe consider using the -bin package instead, if that's an option.

Getting a build error on 33.7. It's occurring right at the end of the build, so it's incredibly annoying to reproduce:

@maid: that's unfortunate, but it doesn't mean the software can be built without it.

If you need assistance with the build failure, perhaps open a thread on the support channels for your distro and provide details. Alternatively, there is a python2-bin package which you can use as an alternative to compiling python yourself. To that end, there are also -bin packages for palemoon in the AUR which you can use as an alternative to compiling the browser yourself.
