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.

I used the following for a PKGBUILD, and it worked for me. Note that I also changed the dependencies. It would compile, but not run without qt and pcre (32bit). http://aur.pastebin.com/Mkj6BpHm

@ vando no, change line 30: mkdir -p ${pkgdir}/opt/pt/{art,backgrounds,bin,extensions,help,LANGUAGES,lib,saves,Sounds,templates} to : mkdir -p ${pkgdir}/opt/pt/{art,backgrounds,bin,extensions,help,LANGUAGES,lib,saves,sounds,templates} or change s to S in line 30, do one of this for installing succesfully , and i dont know which dir the packettracer use, ..../Sound or ..../sound.

This is contained in the PKGBUILD: # Requires Netacad Username/Password to download # http://cisco.netacad.net/cnams/resourcewindow/noncurr/downloadTools/app_files/PacketTracer53_Fedora.tar.gz So you must manually download packettracer and put it in the directory. Since the download requires a netacad username/password there is no easy to automate this process.

==> ERROR: PacketTracer53_Fedora.tar.gz was not found in the build directory and is not a URL. ==> ERROR: Makepkg was unable to build packettracer. can you fix it please?

Updated to 5.3. libpng12 is now needed as a depend. This is out my control, thanks static blob garbage!
