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.

@MrSmith, Since the version 6.3-2 from 2016-06-20, installs in the directory /usr/share/packettracer/ to follow the arch guidelines.

Why does this new version install in the directory /usr/share/packettracer/ and no more in /opt/pt?

Hello, Bump to new version packettracer 7.1-1. Cisco discontinues the 32 bit linux version, only 64 bits version available.

@Leamer, thank you so much! I followed your instructions step-by-step (though I used a newer version of packettracer compared to the one you referenced at the time of your posting). I was able to launch it successfully on the first try. As a total beginner to linux (currently using Manjaro xfce), this is a wonderful feeling. Many thanks again!

Hello, Bump to new version packettracer 7.0-4.

works fine with openssl-1.0 1.0.2.k-4 in [testing], you should update to depend on it, when it hits [extra] as libopenssl-1.0-compat is orphaned

@BluePeril, libopenssl-1.0-compat depending fixed with the same version to avoid all users to reinstall the package.

BluePeril commented on 2017-05-08 20:52 (UTC)

lib32-libopenssl-1.0-compat does not exist for i686

@dkaylor, gcc-multilib depending removed with the same version to avoid all users to reinstall the package. @ingwia, there isn't an obligation to resolves the other users faults, nevertheless, it seems to be java problem, reinstall jdk8-openjdk, jre8-openjdk and jre8-openjdk-headless.
