How To Install hatari on Fedora 34

hatari is An Atari ST/STE/TT/Falcon emulator suitable for playing games

Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install hatari on Fedora 34.

What is hatari

Hatari is an emulator for the Atari ST, STE, TT and Falcon computers. The Atari ST was a 16/32 bit computer system which was first released by Atari in 1985. Using the Motorola 68000 CPU, it was a very popular computer having quite a lot of CPU power at that time. Unlike most other open source ST emulators which try to give you a good environment for running GEM applications, Hatari tries to emulate the hardware as close as possible so that it is able to run most of the old Atari games and demos. Because of this, it may be somewhat slower than less accurate emulators.
