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.

Hi,

Anyone can help me with this error? I can't install packettracer. Thank you!

Newer versions of PacketTracer can be extracted manually using the QT installer framework's devtool.

The Latest Version can be installed normally by running the run file.

Can confirm. But needs community/libpng12 to run.

The Latest Version can be installed normally by running the run file. First Uninstall the old thing though. sudo rm -rf /opt/pt

this build needs to be edited for the run file.

Updated: In order to install Packet Tracer just follow runnytu comment, but you must edit PKGBUILD file like that:

original: source=('packettracer' 'linguist' 'packettracer.sh' 'local://Packet Tracer 7.2.1 for Linux 64 bit.tar.gz')

the way that works: source=('packettracer' 'linguist' 'packettracer.sh' 'local://packet_tracer_7.2.1_for_linux_64_bit.tar.gz')

The other way is just rename the file according to PKGBUILD.
