Thanks a lot!
My distribution/distro is openSUSE.
Posting this here, for list purposes as someone might find it worthwhile.
$zypper in libpciaccess-devel device-mapper-devel rst2html5 libtirpc-devel rpcgen
Other packages were probably already installed.
$zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Publishing/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/Publishing.repo
Had to add the above repo for package rst2html5
Sincerely,
David
