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.

Finally figured it out: (Here is the complete procedure) 1. Download the snapshot from this AUR 2. tar -zxf the packettracer.tar.gz snapshot (creates the dir packettracer/ with the PKGBUILD in it) 3. Download a packettracer7.0 tarball from your Netacad account and copy it into the dir above. 4. Package with the command $makepkg (creates a packettracer-7.0-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz pkg) 5. Install the package with either $maakepkg -i or $sudo pacman -U packettracer-7.0-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz 6. Download debians openssl-1.0.0 libraries from here (http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/o/openssl/libssl1.0.0_1.0.1-4ubuntu5.39_amd64.deb) and extract 7. Once extracted, you will find the relevent libraries under the path (<dir>/data/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/) 8. Copy both files into packettracer's libraries installation location (/usr/share/packettracer/lib) 9. Edit the following line in the file /usr/bin/packettracer to match: (export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/share/packettracer/lib") 10. Input the command "packettracer" in your terminal. :)

So, i downloaded the tar ball from my Netacad account, built it and installed the package. On terminal input command: 'packettracer', to launch the qt4 interface, i get this error /usr/share/packettracer/bin/PacketTracer7: /usr/share/packettracer/lib/libcrypto.so.1.0.0: version `OPENSSL_1.0.0' not found (required by /usr/share/packettracer/bin/PacketTracer7) What is the workaround? anyone..

Trying to download the tar-ball from this AUR. However, the links local://PacketTracer70_32bit_linux.tar.gz, local://PacketTracer70_64bit_linux.tar.gz do not point to any relevant package. Really need this tar-ball. Please update.

xcMI2w, how can I do that?

runnytu commented on 2017-04-28 11:14 (UTC)

I'm on holidays until 4th of may, after that i update the package.

xcMI2w commented on 2017-04-27 20:45 (UTC)

The PKGBUILD needs an update and so do the scripts, since OpenSSL 1.1 is here. As a temp fix I imported the libcrypto.so.1.0.0 and libssl.so.1.0.0 files to /usr/share/packettracer/lib/ and that fixes the issue.

Like daboka said, this works fine on x64 without lib32 deps. Also, I don't know how to launch from the icon launcher, I can only make it work from terminal first putting export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libcrypto-compat.so.1.0.0, but the icon launcher does nothing

daboka commented on 2017-04-26 21:04 (UTC)

Works fine for me without lib32-* deps too. Since OpenSSL 1.1 hit the repos libopenssl-1.0-compat (and probably openssl-1.0) is needed, with `export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libcrypto-compat.so.1.0.0` added to the packettracer script.

Krejzi commented on 2017-03-23 22:17 (UTC)

Are you really sure lib32-* stuff is needed on x86_64? All I see is two native 64 bit binaries. It even has its own Qt4/qtwebkit bundled (which helps a lot since qtwebkit is gone from repos).

@alex2244 You need to acquire the packettracer 7 binary from cisco first. For example, through a netacad account. It can also be found "elsewhere", just don't ask about that here. Once you have it, place it in the directory with the PKGBUILD and run makepkg.
