I downloaded the src.rpm files but now I get this as an error message when I try to make the rpms. What do I need to do to fix this?

I am really new at creating rpm files I have been really lucky in the fact that if the rpm didn't work I would do a make install from source.
My ]$ uname -r -m is. 2.6.17-1.2139_FC5.stk16smp i686
what's with the stk16 ? At any rate, you need the packages it told you need above. Install them with yum.
