Re: Desktop option is missing in System Settings on Arch Linux

And which packages did you install?  Did you include switchboard plugins like switchboard-plug-desktop?

Re: Desktop option is missing in System Settings on Arch Linux

Why are you trying to install the -git version instead of the one in the repo?

Pamac is not your package manager, and it's confusing you.

You have a very unusual definition of "easy".

But note that I was just asking about that package as one example - I'm not sure if it's the one you need.  I've never used pantheon - but I did read the wiki page for it, which I'd recommend you do as well.  Notice I also asked which packages you had installed ...
