Hatari in linux mint can not be installed missing Could not install package (s): libpng12-dev

@macsgv Why don't you use the Libretro Core (lr-hatari) ? Is there any advantage using the standalong Hatari over the Libretro version ?

I couldn't get it to work (lr-hatari), and neither could he.

Linux Mint 19 is not yet supported (It's also still in beta). I can add support when I get a chance, but for now I recommend sticking with non BETA releases.

I have added some platform flags for Linux Mint 19 that may resolve it (so it will use the newer png package). However I am unable to test currently - you will need to update retropie-setup to try the changes.

@buzz Hello and thanks for your prompt response when I want to update retropie-setup I receive the following message:

Fetched the latest version of the Retropie Setup script.

Is there any way to force the update of Retropie Setup script?

[mitu]

@macsgv The message appears after a successful update of the RetroPie-Setup script, so you should have the latest version. What's the version number on top of the setup script ?

[macsgv]

@mitu Hello Mitu, I have version 4.4.1 Retropie- setup Script

@youxia Hi Youxsia follow this video tutorial

It worked for me and I was able to make lr-hatari work.
Regards :-)

@macsgv Thanks, but any chance you could do a quick writeup?
I hate "watching" tutorials on principle - plus it's in Spanish and does not seem to refer to lr-hatari anyway.
