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.

Install fails with ==> ERROR: PacketTracer_731_amd64.deb was not found in the build directory and is not a URL.

Why is it still required to use openssl-1.0 ? Why not instead use openssl>=1.0 in the PKGBUILD and use the most recent version of openssl ?

Hi, I installed the package successfully however I got following error during the build.

install fails by default with:

error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)
packettracer: /opt/packettracer/bin/libdouble-conversion.so.1 exists in filesystem
packettracer: /usr/bin/packettracer exists in filesystem
Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.
==> WARNING: Failed to install built package(s).

after removing previous installation it did fine.

It seems like in PacketTracer_731_amd64.deb, all files are now owned by drevil:drevil (1000:1000). This is an obvious case of broken upstream, and the package will have to work around it - just running chown after tar might be good enough.

The eternal was not found in the build directory and is not a URL.

(this package has more than 10 years)

@runnytu: the install file changed, so pkgrel needs to be incremented: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/PKGBUILD#pkgrel

@lberrymage, Done with the same version to avoid users to update.

For anyone who's not using a traditional window manager and is having trouble installing, make sure you have qt5-base installed.
