Generally, the missing libraries are in the associated 'devel' rpm's 

Generally, it's better to use rpm's because they are easily to install
and remove and give you information about dependencies.

Generally, when using an rpm system like fedora, or RHEL (CentOS), it's
better to find the instructions for installing from either the
developers, the mail list or FAQ of the project or asking a list like
this so you might find someone who has already installed it or can
identify already built rpms for you.
