Here is what you need to install for some of those packages.

SDL_image
SDL_image-devel
guile
guile-devel
libart_lgpl
libart_lgpl-devel
audiofile
audiofile-devel
directfb
directfb-devel
freetype
freetype-devel

The list you have is for Debian packages, which are packaged and named differently than Fedora packages.

Some of the packages are probably already installed, like freetype.

I guess you are not using yum to install packages.
