sudo pacman -S base-devel git --needed #make is a part of base-devel package group

You can also install yay binary package directly from manjaro repos:

sudo pacman -S yay

You dont need AUR in manjaro, just pacman -S yay.

Tip: When pasting terminal output on Discourse forums, one can either…

  • Use the Preformatted text </> toolbar button–NOT the Quote " button.

  • Add three backticks ` above and below the text (Markdown):

    ```
    type or paste code here
    ```

  • Use HTML:

    <pre><code>
    type or paste code here
    </pre></code>

I’ve done it for you this time. :wink:

pamac install yay    

does not work?

It is in the official repositories. It should work fine with the pamac GUI as well.

Why Manjaro’s ISO does not include base-devel packages? :>

The base-devel group is not required normally except for development and using the AUR. Remember, the AUR is neither officially supported by Arch nor Manjaro.
