Hello,

I need to do this to install macchanger :

( https://pkgs.org/search/?q=macchanger )

#Download
wget https://download-ib01.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/34/Everything/x86_64/os/Packages/m/macchanger-1.7.0-18.fc34.x86_64.rpm

#Convert
rpm2archive macchanger-1.7.0-18.fc34.x86_64.rpm

#Install
sudo tar xvf macchanger-1.7.0-18.fc34.x86_64.rpm.tgz -C /

It works perfectly well :
# macchanger -r eno1

  • Current MAC: XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:89 (unknown)
  • Permanent MAC: XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:89 (unknown)
  • New MAC: XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:a1 (unknown)

( NB : I replaced hexa by XX for privacy )

QUESTION :

  • Can you add an macchanger bundle ? Installation would be safer …
  • Can I make my own macchanger bundle ? is CLR packaging complicated ?

Best regards,

macchanger is provided as a rpm and clear linux packages sre also paclaged as rpms! All you have to fo is update the dependencirs from the .spec file and the installation locations to have a package.

The hardest part would be to set up a repository for these packages… Good luck with thay
