The checkconfig.sh file tests to see if everything is installed for purebasic use. A mentioned app-get command automates that for debian and ubuntu. Unfortunately Fedora has different names for some of the files. Since I just did a new installation, I thought it might be useful to list the names of the Fedora files needed to satisfy purebasic dependencies. These are the files I installed to make pure happy. There might be one or two unneccessary ones as I was fishing for the appropriate filenames. Hopefully this will make installation speedy for other fedora users.
For Fedora:
gcc
gcc-c++
libstdc++
c++-gtk-utils-gtk2-devel
gtk+
gtk+-devel
gtk+extra
gtk+extra-devel
libgnome-devel
libgnomeprintui22-devel
libxine
xine-lib-devel
SDL-devel
unixodbc-devel

Re: Installing purebasic under Fedora 21
Thank You!!! I will be installing Fedora in the next day or so. 
Re: Installing purebasic under Fedora 21
if all of that is missing from fed21, one wonders what they are shipping out of the box at all?
... which brings me to my question: can you run compiled PB programs without installing anything on top of the basic distribution, or do you have to include a readme for end users with additional packages they have to get? would be great if you could test that and report your findings, so I would not have to install fed21 - fed never worked right for me.

Old bugs good, new bugs bad! Updates are evil: might fix old bugs and introduce no new ones.
