Installing purebasic under Fedora 21

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

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.

This libs a normally installed! You require only the Devel-Libs and linker gcc a.s.o. for compiling!
All dependency normally resolved!
