I need to check for installed packages and if not installed install them.

Example for RHEL, CentOS, Fedora:

rpm -qa | grep glibc-static
glibc-static-2.12-1.80.el6_3.5.i686

How do I do a check in BASH?

Do I do something like?

if [ "$(rpm -qa | grep glibc-static)" != "" ] ; then

And what do I need to use for other distributions? apt-get?

linux bash shell yum apt
