Description: Cisco PacketTracer 7.3.0 installation package
Java is no longer in dependencies as I said
@runnytu before installing this package. I have deleted java-runtime from dependencies array and I don't have Java installed. Still everything I used works fine in Packettracer. Not sure what Java is needed for...
@Rowisi, If you read carefully it says "Starting with version 7.2.2 Packet Tracer no longer requires Java for use with assessments", only for assessments, now you don't need java plugin in a web browser because it's integrated into the package, but still, it's needed for the package working.
Starting with version 7.2.2 Packet Tracer no longer requires Java. please remove it from deps
Buenas tardes a todos, espero me puedan ayudar... por alguna razon no me deja instalar packet tracer en manjaro, modifique el archivo PKGBUILD de esta manera:
pkgname=packettracer pkgver=7.3.0 pkgrel=2 pkgdesc="PacketTracer_730_amd64" arch=( 'x86_64' ) depends=('openssl-1.0' 'libpng12' 'icu') options=('!strip' '!emptydirs') install=${pkgname}.install license=('custom')

Resulta que el archivo original que esta actualmente salen mas errores pero asi como lo tengo solo me lanza estos errores:

gracias a todos!
I'm on manjaro 18.1.5 with the 4.19 LTS kernel.
You have to manually install this. Because in the PKGBUILD file he has this line to download the binary .deb file yourself: source=('local://PacketTracer_730_amd64.deb' 'packettracer.sh')
You can either download it from some random website, or make an account on netacad.com. I got it from official site, and friend got it from some other source. Ours both had the same hash value, which also matches the sha512sum in the PKGBUILD here:
sha256sum PacketTracer_730_amd64.deb
67d8acee7e101d99e12e47c74bc8ed56c28a596adaa2f3032593fbe0bb83198c PacketTracer_730_amd64.deb
What I did was run "yay -S packettracer" which puts all the necessary files in "/home/$USER/.cache/yay/packettracer/". It gives an error:
ERROR: PacketTracer_730_amd64.deb was not found in the build directory and is not a URL.
Delete the packettracer folder, then set it up manually.
cd /home/$USER/.cache/yay && git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/packettracer.git
copy the "PacketTracer_730_amd64.deb" file into this packettracer folder. And now run "yay -S packettracer" and it installs without any errors cuz it finds the .deb file at source=('local://PacketTracer_730_amd64.deb'......).
When you run "yay -S packettracer", it asks: ==> Packages to cleanBuild?
Hit 'n' for no. If you hit yes, it deletes the entire git repo dir we just set up.
Why don't you put a link to the deb file instead of leaving it as a responsibility of the user?
This package is missing several dependencies to covers PacketTracer7's needed libraries. Not sure what the specific requirements are, but to get what I was missing I installed qt5-svg qt5-webkit qt5-script qt5-multimedia qt5-webengine.
The symbolic link created in the install file should be done in the PKGBUILD.
I get this message when trying to start exam on Plasma. Could not find any application or handler for pttp://launchvdsptsa... I think there should be .desktop file that handles these links.

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.
