 ## About
 
-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.
+This is a fork of [Flatpak manifest](https://github.com/losuler/com.cisco.PacketTracer) 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, which can be bypassed with disabled networking.
+
+## Changes from upstream
+- Manifest changes:
+    - Updated platforms (from 22.08 to 24.08)
+    - Restricted permissions on network and filesystem (xdg-download/packettracer instead of xdg-download)
+    - Added `QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb` envvar
+- Makefile changes:
+    - Added `install-deps` option
+
