That would be cool. When I get home tonight I will checkout the scripts. I use Fedora too. I figured for every distro it would be the different. My limited understanding is that each distro has a package management system. Maybe there is an API we can call to bring down the missing dependencies automatically for developers?
It seems like the there is already a way to identify the missing pieces and now we just need an API that can be used to invoke the OS' package management system. I don't know if the dependencies would be different enough that we would need something different for every distro and DE combo. I hope not but I don't know. I know that KMyMoney seems to behave a little different between x11 and Wayland but not sure if that is a QT issue, Fedora or KMyMoney issue. I will check out the scripts. Thank to all of you for the insight.
