A nice shortcut under centos 8 is using:

    yum install fltk-devel

That quickly pulls in all the X/image/mesa/zlib/etc development files that FLTK needs all at once.

Not sure if you need to have 'PowerTools' enabled first in order to do that, e.g.

    dnf config-manager --set-enabled PowerTools

I noticed early on after installing Centos 8 that to install common dev packages, a command like 'yum install doxgen' would fail (not found error) unless you enabled "powertools" with that dnf command first.
