Thanks!
Any idea about a tuto like … “what to do after installing Manjaro” – I found nothing serious on Google.
Sorry, a what? 
Sounds like a useless clickbait article. 
Disclaimer: The AUR is neither officially supported by Arch nor Manjaro.
Well, anyway, for someone not familiar with Manjaro, someone coming from other distros, systems, in my case Debian, what should I do after installing Manjaro? – I knew that AUR is necessary, but I don’t know many other things … maybe a tutorial would be very useful, if it exists …
Thank you.
I’m not sure where you read or heard that. It’s a bonus, certainly, if used with care and the software isn’t available by the “regular” means, such as the main repos, flatpaks, appimages etc…
The page @Yochanan linked to is laid out in a fairly straightforward, easy to understand manner, in my opinion. 
I see, apparently there is no tutorial for Manjaro, maybe it must be a distro for more advanced users.
The compilation at the end (about 1 hr and half) gave the same error as before … despite having installed the requirement,
pamac install base development git
I also tried another one I saw on octopi goldendict-git also gives the same error.
Is there any other way to get this application on Manjaro?
Not sure where you got that command from - the wiki page @Yochanan linked to in post #2 shows the correct command: pamac install base-devel git:
And make sure you don’t use sudo for this - pamac will prompt for your password when required.

It was a mistake while typing …`[alnone@alnone-inspiron3583 ~]$ LANG=C pamac install base-devel git

I noticed you used yay for the failed installation of goldendict - what happens when you use Manjaro’s recommended method: pamac build goldendict? Make sure you have the AUR enabled in Pamac before you do this, as per the wiki.
It seems it won’t build with Pamac either. I’ve just tried it a couple of times … other stuff from the AUR has been installing fine so I guess it’s an issue with the package or its pkgbuild. I’ll try again at home with a decent internet connection.
Edit: Reply should have been aimed at original poster, not @BG405 whose last reply was just testing building Goldendict via Pamac
@Alnone: If goldendict fails to build using Pamac, you might want to look at some of the other goldendict packages available in the AUR, such as the current git version (ignore the version number shown in Pamac - it will install the current git version) or the appimage (which is self-contained with no dependencies):
If you click on the aur.archlinux link in the Pamac GUI’s details section (highlighted in red on my screenshot), you will be able to view the package details and any notes made by users & the maintainer regarding installation issues. Maybe the appimage version might work best - its AUR page shows no issues submitted by users.
One other note: being on Manjaro’s Stable branch can occasionally cause dependency issues with packages in the AUR, which are built against Arch Linux (Manjaro Unstable branch is closest to Arch current). I’m on Stable & use a few AUR packages, but I am always aware that something may eventually fail to build due to the disparity.

*Sorry if I insist.
It would be helpful if someone could recommend a tutorial, article, etc. that would explain some basic fundamentals for the inexperienced user; I feel like a Roman barbarian arriving in a Greek city and understanding almost nothing of what is being said:
Anyway … thank you very much!.
