The fedora easytag spec lists these BuildRequires:

BuildRequires: gtk2-devel >= 2.4.0, id3lib-devel >= 3.7.12
BuildRequires: libvorbis-devel >= 1.0, flac-devel, libmp4v2-devel, wavpack-devel
BuildRequires: gettext

The fedora package removes the libmpg123 dir from the easytag sources,
for everyone's favorite reason: potential patent problems.  If you're
building with that included still, you may need some other packages as
well.

The easytag site lists libid3tag as a requirement, so I'd probably
look to install libid3tag-devel (available in the fedora repository).
