The easier way is to install panda3d with pip. It’ll work anywhere and install the latest version.

Panda pip install is not working on (CachyOS, Pop_OS)
Its count as external managed(PEP 668) and suggest pipx (also not work)
Build from AUR works, but it’s old version

As long as you don’t run pip as root this will be fine:

pip install --user --break-system-packages panda3d

The alternative is to create a virtualenv and pip install panda3d into that.
