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.

@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

Can I suggest GNS3 as a great free as in freedom alternative (if not better)? Check it out here: http://www.gns3.net/ Thanks anyways to the maintainers of this PKGBUILD for making it easier for us the installation of PT :)

This warning goes out to everyone watching this page, including offenders atyus, wget and BrunoPT: This PKGBUILD does not include a source URL for a reason -- the source file is not freely redistributable. Although the program is free for students to use, it is only authorized for students of Cisco's Academy partners. You must be taking or have taken a recognized Academy class such as Exploration or Discovery (short courses offered by third-party training partners may not qualify), and need to have created or be given (by your instructor) an account at the Academy's website. You then download the file via their website and put it where this PKGBUILD is in order to build the package. TL;DR: Redistribution of Packet Tracer is illegal, and we do not allow sharing links to non-redistributable files. The AUR is not a place for sharing warez. I have deleted all such links.

@Andblizz, you have to download binary archive manually
