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.

Packettracer now uses system Qt whenever possible, so the font problem is fixed. It still uses the bundled libQtXml to prevent crashing when saving.

You need to be a member of the Cisco Network Academy. If you are not, than you are not able to legally use this software.

PacketTracer531_Fedora.tar.gz not found. Please let me know where I can download it.

Updated to 5.3.1. Note: you must have the Tahoma font installed otherwise the menu will be unreadable. Alternatively, blindly navigate to Options (3rd Item) -> Preferences (First Item) -> Font (Tab) -> File Menu and select a different font. Also, since I am no longer using PT on a regular basis I will orphan 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.
