This needed the libxml2 and curl libraries to be installed on my development environment. Those are installed using the following commands:

$ sudo yum install libxml2-devel
$ sudo yum install curl-devel

You can easy solve this on linux/debian or ubuntu by running sudo apt-get install build-essential libcurl4-openssl-dev then after run sudo apt-get install libxml2-dev

You should be fine
