Note : There is no binary for Cisco packet tracer in arch linux repositores

We have to install it manually.

It will work in all arch based distros

Steps for Manual Installation

  1. Download the .deb file from Download Page

You may need to sign-up if you haven’t already

  1. Download the build package file using:
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/packettracer.git
  1. Rename the .deb file that you have downloaded.

Rename it to CiscoPacketTracer_811_Ubuntu_64bit.deb

We’re renaming it because our build package will be looking for file with this name

  1. Copy the renamed .deb package into packettracer directory
cp ~/Downloads/CiscoPacketTracer_811_Ubuntu_64bit.deb ~/packettracer
  1. now go into packettracer directory:
cd packketracer
  1. Install using makepkg:
makepkg -i

It might prompt for password for installation after building the package.
