And, generally:

####
If you are compiling programs on a Linux distribution that uses package
management (RPM, DEB, whatever) to install software, and you find tat
configures or makes are dying because they can't find libraries or
header files, there is almost certainly an extra package file you need
to install.  These are conventionally called -dev or -devel, and
otherwise named after whatever package they go with.
####

That is all.  This is a recording.  Congrats on getting it built.  :-)

Cheers,
