how to install xfce4-appmenu-plugin on Fedora
Hi, I'm stuck trying to install the XFCE global menu. I tried every different coprs things to no avail, I even tried building it from the github repo, but it gets stuck at "meson.build:77:0: ERROR: Dependency "libxfce4panel-2.0" not found, tried pkgconfig and cmake" (libxfce4panel is installed) and setting the prefix to /usr/lib64/xfce4/panel like the guide told me didn't work

Is it possible to look like this on XFCE?
Check out https://github.com/rilian-la-te/vala-panel-appmenu - that's what I use Depends on your distro, there's a really nice AUR package, but yeah the Readme has instructions for different distros. I don't know if there are ready made packages for other distros or if you have to compile from source.
