How to get Cisco Packet Tracer on Manjaro?

Easy:

  1. Download the snapshot from AUR:
    https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/snapshot/packettracer.tar.gz

  2. Uncompress the packettracer.tar.gz snapshot (it creates the dir packettracer/ with the PKGBUILD on it).

  3. Download the latest packettracer .deb file from your Netacad account:
    https://www.netacad.com/

  4. Copy it into the packettracer/ dir.

  5. Open a Terminal in the packettracer/ dir. and create the package with the command makepkg. It creates a packettracer.pkg.tar.xz.

  6. From the same opened terminal, install the package with either makepkg -i or sudo pacman -U packettracer.pkg.tar.xz.
