Pamac pending button does not show the pending transactions

I am using pamac-gtk3 10.6.0-4 on Xfce

[Testing update] 2023-06-24 - Known issues and Solutions

Pamac GUI theme does not match theme for Xfce

pamac-gtk 11.0.1 uses Gtk 4 that is not supported by Xfce
user can replace pamac-gtk with pamac-gtk3

sudo pacman -S pamac-gtk3

pamac-gtk3 is working as expected to show Pending packages from Manjaro repositories. But it does not work reliably if AUR packages are selected - GUI can sometimes crash if AUR database is not up to date. So I prefer pamac CLI for installing/updating AUR packages most of the time
