Ah I'm a dumbass... I found it
https://github.com/thiagojack/packettracer-rpm-based/blob/main/setup.sh#L78 and https://github.com/thiagojack/packettracer_ce8/blob/master/pt730_centos8_install.sh#L16 Are same code to extract the deb package. Thanks!

Would you share this to Cisco community? Because it's really useful man. There are a lot of EL based need this package, but for no reason Cisco doesn't even want to build one, but they still promoting RHEL which is confusing for me...

@thiagoojack The script is tested on Fedora 37 and works with PK 8.2, could you update the readme?

I preferred not to use the alien tool using only the ar to extract the deb file.
When you talk about "Cisco Community", where exactly is this community?

@thiagojack https://community.cisco.com/t5/online-tools-and-resources/bd-p/5011-discussions-online-tools-resources should be there, but I don't know whether the script is against the term and condition or not
