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.

Hello, Bump to new version packettracer 6.2-2

Uncomment the "export" line in /usr/bin/pt to use Qt libraries shipped with PacketTracer to avoid crash without downgrading system package. Maintainer, would you mind modifying the source?

Cisco PacketTracer fails to load and results in a segmentation fault when using the latest lib32-qt4-4.8.7-2. Downgrading to lib32-qt4-4.8.7-1 resolves the issue.

While using packet tracer 6.2 I noticed that there are many bugs so I had to downgrade to 6.1.1. If someone need the PKGBUILD here it is: http://pastebin.com/sQEWg81A P.D. The md5sums in the comment of @arselinux is for the version WITH tutorials.

@arselinux You sir are a gentleman!

@denlawin Packet Tracer is proprietary and is only supposed to be available to Netacad students. Therefore, you'll have to grab the source tarball yourself. Not sure if the maintainer is actually active or not, but I just had to make a few changes to get this to work with the latest version of Packet Tracer: $ diff PKGBUILD_old PKGBUILD 7c7 < pkgver=6.0.1 --- > pkgver=6.1.1 21c21 < source=( 'http://Cisco Packet Tracer 6.0.1 for Linux (with tutorials)' 'packettracer' --- > source=( 'Cisco Packet Tracer 6.1.1 for Linux - Ubuntu installation (with tutorials) - Student version.tar.gz' 'packettracer' 23c23 < md5sums=('6d623bc0761cbb6e3cdccb3c0e0ec70b' --- > md5sums=('ae34fb508f57a6e0f6c804fa74a20788' 33c33 < cd ${srcdir}/PacketTracer601 --- > cd ${srcdir}/PacketTracer611Student
