Apparently....

The question really is...  why would you want to use a tar package when
it is already in the repos and maintained for you?   Just seems like you
are making more work for yourself than you need to. 

Sorry I don't have an answer for you at the moment as to your compile
issue but the problem you have is normally caused by not having a
particular devel package installed.
