When using my binary repo then Manjaro packages might be too old, indeed. Switching to the Git version doesn't help in this case at all, at least not using the version from my binary repo.
When building the package from sources one has to take care of rebuilding if a dependency changes its soname - regardless whether Manjaro or normal Arch is used. The only convenience Arch users have is that I usually bump pkgrel
as needed (so e.g. their AUR helper does the rebuild as needed). Building packages from sources is also what my last comment was about.
Switching to the Git version likely helped in your case because that obviously means doing a new build so you've got the required rebuild. (But you could have just rebuilt the normal package as well.)

All my packages are managed at GitHub where you can also contribute directly: https://github.com/Martchus/PKGBUILDs
There also exist a binary repository: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Unofficial_user_repositories#ownstuff
The packages within the binary repository are built against the latest packages from Arch Linux and hence might not be compatible with Manjaro. This can be the cause when the Plasmoid doesn't work.
Important remarks:
pkgrel
of the AUR package when a rebuild is required (only in accordance with Arch Linux of course, not in accordance with Manjaro).syncthingtray
broken until it has been rebuilt) or to uninstallsyncthingtray
temporarily before the update. After the updatesyncthingtray
can be rebuilt and reinstalled again.makechrootpkg
which is also how official developers build their packages (and how packages in my binary repository are built).c++utilities
,qtutilities
,qtforkawesome
andsyncthingtray
in that order.syncthingtray-qt6
instead of this package.makepkg --nocheck
ormakechrootpkg -- --nocheck
. It makes still sense to report failures. But please include the actual error message and not just the last few lines.
