If you are on a rpm based sysem (RH, etc) you need to download the development RPM as well as the binary as that's where all the includes are that are needed for C extensions. But, the better installation is to download the source and compile locally using the usual sequence

./congfigure
make
su
make install

(but read the documents first). In that case the necesary files will be automatically installed.
