Hi,
that means, that you haven't installed some devel packages. These development packages include the headerfiles of your libraries. As lots of users will never compile a program but user rpm instead, installing these packages by default would be a waste of space.
I don't know which distro you are using, but search for a package like xfree-devel or something similar.
You may need some other devel packages as well.

it works but here another problem...

I got this message :

checking for KDE... configure: error:
in the prefix, you've chosen, are no KDE headers installed. This will fail.
So, check this please and use another prefix!

Which prefix should I use ?

thx
