Has anyone got the same problem?

cisco-pt{,sa}.desktop
both end up being mere symlinks to the (no longer existing) PKGBUILD directory.
Also, I need to run unset QT_QPA_PLATFORM
since I set it to wayland
and that insta-crashes the program.
click the "Skills for all"-Button in Packet-Tracer there comes up the message "Login is in progress: a new window has been opened in your browser. Please sign in using your Skills For All Credentials". But nothing in Web-Browser happens.
Solution is next:
XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=GNOME packettracer
Edit the PKGBUILD file on line 18
source=('local://Packet_Tracer821_amd64_signed.deb'
The current version
BUG: Packet Tracer is not associated with mimetype x-scheme-handler/pttp by installation of this package--but it is in Ubuntu. PTTP is used to do assessments in NetAcad with Packet Tracer, potentially among other things.
For reference do $dpkg -e CiscoPacketTracer_821_Ubuntu_64bit.deb
and see line 10 of the generated DEBIAN/postinst
.
See also /opt/packettracer/bin/updatepttp, but that's a binary executable that I'm scared to run cos idk what it does.
WORKAROUND: $xdg-mime default cisco-ptsa.desktop x-scheme-handler/pttp
(spoiler alert: this this is line 10 of DEBIAN/postinst
)
I know nothing about packages in Arch but as a friendly reminder putting this in the post-uninstallation script is probably a good idea too.
@sTiKyt, when is icedtea-web requested/needed?
Shoudn't icedtea-web be a dependency?
@tategotoazarasi did you download it from https://www.netacad.com/portal/resources/packet-tracer? For me it has version 8.2.1 on that page. Maybe Cisco hasn't propagated the update worldwide yet?

To install all versions of packettracer except 7.2.2, follow this guidelines: 1. Download the snapshot from this AUR. 2. Tar -zxf the packettracer.tar.gz snapshot (it creates the dir packettracer/ with the PKGBUILD on it). 3. Download the latest packettracer tarball from your Netacad account and copy it into the packettracer/ dir. 4. Create the package with the command makepkg (it creates a packettracer.pkg.tar.xz). 5. Install the package with either makepkg -i or sudo pacman -U packettracer.pkg.tar.xz.
Packettracer 7.2.2 are auto installable via run file, download it from netacad webpage and run it, you don't need this package.
