Clone the xcape repo, install its dependencies:

yum install gcc make libX11-devel libXtst-devel libXi-devel

then make, and move xcape to /usr/local/bin.

Create/Edit /etc/gdm/PostLogin/Default, with the minimum content of:

#!/bin/sh
xcape -e 'Shift_L=Shift_L|parenleft;Shift_R=Shift_R|parenright'

You can delete the cloned xcape repo folder if you want, or keep it to pull updates and make again in the future.
