Bradley:
Try this first:
rpm -qa | grep <package_name>
If you get no response, then you have to use yum in install mode.
Example:
# rpm -qa | grep cyrus-sasl
#
(cyrus-sasl was not found)
# yum install cyrus-sasl
.... yum responses and successful installation of cyrus-sasl
#
What are you development packages trying to install that requires these
packages?
