Build in a clean chroot with manjaro-chrootbuild:

sudo pacman -Syu --needed base-devel git manjaro-chrootbuild
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/balena-etcher.git
sudo chrootbuild -p balena-etcher -c
sudo pacman -U balena-etcher-2:1.7.9-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst

Fails. Full log: balena etcher chroot build - 1a21fa31

In the meantime balenaEtcher-1.7.9-x64.AppImage works perfect.

I’d like to plug
ventoy
here

Easy to install, versatile, reliable.
and the USB device can be used as storage as usual - minus the size of the .iso images you copy to it to choose to boot from

==> ERROR: 'pacman' failed to install missing dependencies.
==> Missing dependencies:
  -> electron12

You’ll need to install electron12-bin from the AUR into the chroot to build. Example:

sudo chrootbuild -p balena-etcher -c -i /path/to/<pkg.tar.zst>

Then use that.

@Nachlese it’s great, now I’m using ventoy
