Thanks to all who replied :-)

Yes you were right the -devel package was missing.

Either I am dumb :-) or what ? AFAIK, usually when a *-devel is missing
the compilation fails at the configure stage so I was confused. Lesson
learned. :-)

Thanks but they appear to be build for RHE while I have a SuSE toy. I'd
rather not take the risk on a production machine :-) Besides I like
source rpms, it's so easy to compile your own stuff.
 
Many thanks to all :-)
