Did you try to locate these dependencies in your package manager ?

I already said that and you didn't listen.

meansushil,

personally, i didnt have good experience with vmware. But, if you are not very particular about which virtualization software you are going to use, I wish to suggest virtualbox. It works great without much hassles (my personal experience).

As minzhang suggested, go to the virtualbox.org site and choose your distro. You wont regret. my suggestion is "dont rely on the yum package manager.", that too you are not using centos, but rhel.!
here is the link
