Michael,
If you have just downloaded the iso images to burn to cds from a Red Hat 
mirror,
you may not have gotten all the files you need to compile from source
as Scirbus needs.  I know in SuSE 8.2, we were provided a rpm of Scribus
0.9.7 on the discs, but using the CVS or provided tar balls from Scribus'
site will require you to compile and devel files are needed for that.  
Those
will be the files not included with your downloaded version.  Red Hat 
doesn't
want to give it all away, they need money too, in order to continue to 
operate!
