I have this same problem now myself. The most strange part is, if I launch from the GUI menu, it fails with this error. If I launch from a command terminal, it works fine using the same command from the KDE GUI menu. Doesn’t make any sense at all.
Note this happened after the latest patch.
I have converted your post to a dedicated thread where it can attract maximum attention.
Please provide the neccessary information for others to help you discover if indeed it is the same problem.

Thanks for the info. Note, this is not OS breaking, just annoying. I assume a new user however might get detered by it. I can leave it as is, or remove Pamac and reinstall Pamac to see if that fixes it… I will wait for someone to advise me on testing for a fix before I try to fix it myself. This will maybe let us find the root cause.
If I had to guess, the root cause may be with GTK4. I had another issue with this app and super large mouse cursor sizes and GTK4. I hear there is a fix for this in March 2025, but the workaround for now is to not use Breeze icons. This of course is a totally unrelated issue.
This current problem for the original issue is I get the following message when launching Pamac from the KDE GUI menu:
Checking what is in the KDE menu:
But if I run the same command in a terminal window, it works fine with no errors, only a warning:

As you are using Plasma, you might find that replacing pamac-gtk with pamac-gtk3 (which does not rely on Adwaita) works better on your system. Just run the command:
pamac install pamac-gtk3
Yeah, this works. I like the GTK3 version better anyway. Forgot why I went to GTK4 for this thing.
Thx for the tip.
To be clear, installing pamac-gtk3 solved your issue?
If so, please mark the post that solved it (or helped you solve it) as the solution. As a member since 2021 you know how it works. 
Yep, it is solved. Still playing with it, but this is a good workaround.
