I'm not aware of any release-distro that ships with all dev deps, or a
'1-click' solution.
If your 'expectation' is hard, feel free to ignore; if it can bend, the
following is straightforward:
DL the latest Opensuse Tumbleweed (TW) installation-media .iso here,
https://software.opensuse.org/distributions/tumbleweed
or, directly (atm, most recent snapshot ...)
https://provo-mirror.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/iso/openSUSE-Tumbleweed-DVD-x86_64-Snapshot20190307-Media.iso
'Boot' to installer & graphically-install OpenSUSE TW to VM of choice
(VirtualBox6 works nicely)
(docs:
https://doc.opensuse.org/documentation/leap/startup/single-html/book.opensuse.startup/index.html)
Once booted, @ shell
(1) zypper ar
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Kernel:/stable/standard Kernel_stable
(2) zypper in kernel-default kernel-default-devel kernel-source-devel
(3) zypper in -d postfix
(these steps _can_ be effectively done from within the installer UI; your
choice)
If you need a 'zypper' cheat-sheet,
https://en.opensuse.org/images/1/17/Zypper-cheat-sheet-1.pdf
note: TW will imminently upgrade to kernel v5, as soon as it passes openQA
(https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/681405). At that point, step (1) will
no longer be necessary
Reboot VM.
That should do it (assuming the postfix package spec's requirements are
complete).
