here:

lsb_release -i
Distributor ID: Fedora

this would even allow fine-tuned messages. However, the
redhat-lsb-core or whatever it is called elsewhere may not be present.

The order could be
- try lsb_release -i: if success, print devel package name;
    - if it fails, try $OSTYPE: if success, print choice of devel pkg names;
        - if it fails: if success, print current generic message.
