After February 27 version y work with Arch Linux to decongest AUR, we already have a new stable version. On this occasion, what we have available is manjaro 2022-03-14, and guess which users are better off? Indeed, once again, those of KDE. On this update, among the packages we have KDE Plasma 5.24.3 and KDE Gear 21.12.3. Cutefish users will also benefit more, since their desktop has also been updated.
On the other hand, it has been included for all Kodi 19.4, with which many of us hoped that some problems with addons that did not work would have been solved. But this is not a problem of Kodi, nor of Manjaro, but of the creators of addons. The following is the list with most outstanding news who have arrived together with Manjaro 2022-03-14.

For existing users, Manjaro 2022-03-14 packages are already waiting to be installed, either with Pacman (sudo pacman -Syu) or from Pamac, which could be considered Manjaro's own software center. As we have already explained on some other occasion, many purists prefer to use the command for the terminal, but we have also commented from time to time that Pamac has improved a lot in recent versions and that it can be updated perfectly from it, even coming to be recommended. because it could better manage some dependencies. Whatever you do, Manjaro 2022-03-14 It is now available.
