Here's a suggestion, thanks!

Linux
-----

Some Linux distributions (including Red Hat/Fedora/CentOS) include
headers and library links in the -devel RPMs rather than the main
binary RPMs. If you get an error about headers, or complaining about a
missing prerequisite that you know is installed, make sure the -devel
RPMs are installed too.
