I was installing necessary packages for Pantheron
while installing gala-git, it has some issue with mutter, which I fixed by downgrading it.
next step is to install wingpanel-git,
after cloning git when I run the command
$ makepkg -si
error starts from here
CMake Error: The source directory "/home/ujjwal/Downloads/wingpanel-git/src/wingpanel" does not appear to contain CMakeLists.txt.
Specify --help for usage, or press the help button on the CMake GUI.
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build().
Aborting...
I searched on directories, even on web, but I couldn't found the CMakeLists.txt
What to do?

Moving to AUR Issues...

There is a meson.build file in the wingpanel source directory.
Seems they switched to the meson build system and the PKGBUILD needs to be updated.
See also the README.md file.
edit:
$ cd src/wingpanel
$ git log

Followed README.md
$ meson build --prefix=/usr
$ cd build
$ ninja
$ sudo ninja install
$ wingpanel
but after the last command(wingpanel), nothing happens

$ meson build --prefix=/usr
$ cd build
$ ninja
$ sudo ninja install
$ wingpanel
You're installing programs outside of our package manager pacman, which will lead to problems.
Undo those steps immediately and correct the PKGBUILD
Incase you do prefer to install manually , install in /usr/local instead of /usr .
Edit: or use wingpanel package instead.

Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.
(A works at time B) && (time C > time B ) ≠ (A works at time C)

there is a different file wingpanel.git instead of wingpanel-git.git
should I copy its CMakeLists.txt to wingpanel-git.git?

You might want to post the updated PKGBUILD to the relevant AUR page and contact the maintainer that they could adjust accordingly.
