6 | A Flatpak manifest for Cisco's Packet Tracer. 7 |

10 |
11 | 12 | ## About 13 | 14 | This is a Flatpak manifest for [Cisco's Packet Tracer](https://www.netacad.com/courses/packet-tracer). The Deb package in which Cisco distributes their binary build of Packet Tracer is not included as the download link for and use of Packet Tracer itself requires a Netacad account. 15 | 16 | This is currently based on Packet Tracer 8.2.1 and is intended to track the latest release. For previous releases see [janymal/PacketTracer7-flatpak](https://github.com/janymal/PacketTracer7-flatpak) and [rpallai/flatpak-pt](https://github.com/rpallai/flatpak-pt). 17 | 18 | ## Building 19 | 20 | 1. Clone this repository. 21 | 22 | ```bash 23 | git clone https://github.com/losuler/com.cisco.PacketTracer 24 | ``` 25 | 26 | 2. Install build dependencies (using your preferred package manager). 27 | 28 | ```bash 29 | dnf install flatpak-builder 30 | ``` 31 | 32 | 3. Install Flatpak runtime dependencies. 33 | 34 | ```bash 35 | flatpak install \ 36 | org.kde.Sdk/x86_64/5.15-22.08 \ 37 | io.qt.qtwebengine.BaseApp/x86_64/5.15-22.08 38 | ``` 39 | 40 | 4. Download the official Deb package to the cloned repository (don't rename it). 41 | 42 | https://skillsforall.com/resources/lab-downloads 43 | 44 | 5. Build and install the Flatpak. 45 | 46 | ```bash 47 | cd com.cisco.PacketTracer 48 | flatpak-builder --install --user build com.cisco.PacketTracer.yml 49 | ``` 50 | 51 | ## Notes 52 | 53 | - Do not remove the `.flatpak-builder` directory that is created during the build (while the Flatpak is installed) as it serves as the local Flatpak repository. 54 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /com.cisco.PacketTracer.yml: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | app-id: com.cisco.PacketTracer 2 | runtime: org.kde.Platform 3 | runtime-version: '5.15-22.08' 4 | sdk: org.kde.Sdk 5 | base: io.qt.qtwebengine.BaseApp 6 | base-version: '5.15-22.08' 7 | command: /app/pt/packettracer 8 | separate-locales: false 9 | 10 | tags: 11 | - proprietary 12 | 13 | finish-args: 14 | - --share=ipc 15 | - --share=network 16 | - --socket=x11 17 | - --socket=pulseaudio 18 | - --device=dri 19 | - --filesystem=xdg-download 20 | - --persist=. 21 | - --env=TZ= 22 | 23 | modules: 24 | - name: packettracer 25 | buildsystem: simple 26 | build-commands: 27 | - install -D com.cisco.PacketTracer.appdata.xml /app/share/metainfo/com.cisco.PacketTracer.appdata.xml 28 | - ar x Packet_Tracer822_amd64_signed.deb 29 | - xz -d data.tar.xz 30 | - tar -xf data.tar 31 | - find opt/pt/saves opt/pt/templates opt/pt/templates/environments -type d -exec chmod 755 {} + 32 | - find opt/pt/saves opt/pt/templates opt/pt/templates/environments -type f -exec chmod 644 {} + 33 | - mv opt/pt /app 34 | - install -D /app/pt/art/app.png /app/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/com.cisco.PacketTracer.png 35 | - install -D com.cisco.PacketTracer.png /app/share/icons/hicolor/128x128/apps/com.cisco.PacketTracer.png 36 | - install -D com.cisco.PacketTracer.desktop /app/share/applications/com.cisco.PacketTracer.desktop 37 | - install -D com.cisco.PacketTracer.url.desktop /app/share/applications/com.cisco.PacketTracer.url.desktop 38 | - sed -i -e 's\/opt/\/app/\g' /app/pt/packettracer /app/pt/linguist 39 | - sed -i -e 's\"$@"\-style windows "$@"\;' /app/pt/packettracer /app/pt/linguist 40 | 41 | sources: 42 | - type: file 43 | path: Packet_Tracer822_amd64_signed.deb 44 | sha256: 6cd2b8891df92d2cad8b6fdc47480fc089de085c4f3fe95eb80d5450a2a7f72d 45 | - type: file 46 | path: com.cisco.PacketTracer.appdata.xml 47 | - type: file 48 | path: com.cisco.PacketTracer.desktop 49 | - type: file 50 | path: com.cisco.PacketTracer.url.desktop 51 | - type: file 52 | path: com.cisco.PacketTracer.png 53 | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
