OT: Help with compiling gphoto 2.4

I'm trying to build gphoto 2.4 from source. However, when I run 
'configure', it says it cannot link to the libltdl. As I illustrate 
below, I have the rpm installed. I am hoping someone can point out what 
I'm doing wrong.

Thanks!

[root@orpheus libgphoto2-2.4.0]# ./configure
...
checking ltdl.h usability... no
checking ltdl.h presence... no
checking for ltdl.h... no
checking that we can compile and link with libltdl... no
configure: error: cannot compile and link against libltdl
libgphoto2 requires libltdl (the libtool dl* library),
but cannot compile and link against it.
Aborting.

[root@orpheus libgphoto2-2.4.0]# rpm -qa | grep libtool
libtool-1.5.22-11.fc7
libtool-ltdl-1.5.22-11.fc7

[root@orpheus libgphoto2-2.4.0]# rpm -ql libtool-ltdl-1.5.22-11.fc7

You need the libltdl-devel package installed.

Makes sense, but from where? I cannot find libltdl-devel with 'yum 
search' or 'yum install'.

Thanks.

Oops, never mind. The package is called libtool-ltdl-devel. Thanks!

Oops - how about "libtool-ltdl-devel" (from 'yum search ltdl')?
