Your inability to understand a package is not a reason to delete it from the AUR.

All three shows invalid links.

It's quite clear that you need to register first to get access to downloads on Cisco site. You are the only one complaining about some non-existent issue. BP

Just see how many comments are there in the last two links. Only two comments and those are complaints about invalid links. I hope you can see it before taking someone's side who questions others ability. and finally the packet tracer wiki https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/packettracer which still has that old packet tracer AUR page https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/packettracer I already tried downloading the package manually from Cisco official page and try building but it ends up only in errors. This is the thread I started last day >> https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1641320#p1641320 If you expect only an Arch Pro to work on your AUR stuff, then I have nothing to say. Let them pick all these pieces from diff location and try to build it. Well, Packettracer is inevitable to me for another purpose. I think I may need to go back to my previous distros for this issue which has the easy way to install it. I am done here. I expect no more talk about the same. Thank you.

Yes, Doug are right, you don't know very well the AUR rules: 1 If you detects something wrong, first read the existing comments of the package, perhaps the solution is in the comments. 2 If your problem isn't exposed before, put a new comment with the issue and the tests you did. 3 If in a good space of time noone responds your issue, you could make a request for disown the package, and you or other person, fix the issue or explain the possible solution. In this case the solution are in the comments, cisco's packet tracer are freeware but it's not free to redistribute, you need to open a netcad account (free), and download from the cisco's webpage, to get packettracer installed.

Ask Doug. He is the man questioning someone's ability. None of the packettracer links are valid.
