That's a fair question, but I don't know the answer. I tried the usual
suspects (gcc , autoconf, etc.) from a list, but it seemed (missing
???.h files, and no I didn't write them down) that some xxxdev
packages were missing.

It probably makes sense for a server setup, but I've never understood
why installs of a package don't include everything. I'm probably
spoiled by long years on Gentoo, where that's exactly how it works.
