libudev.h is missing

I am trying to install an application and the make fails because libudev.h is not found. I have install basically all of the libudev things. What am I missing?

S | Name | Summary | Type
–±---------------±--------------------------------------------------±-------
i | libudev-mm0 | A Rule-Based Device Node and Kernel Event Manager | package
i | libudev0 | A Rule-Based Device Node and Kernel Event Manager | package
i | libudev0-32bit | A Rule-Based Device Node and Kernel Event Manager | package

Below is the exact error:

I’d have expected a corresponding “-devel” package - have you installed the SDK (you can download it for free and install it as an add-on product)? I’m off-site, so I currently cannot check if some matching package is provided with the SDK…

The libudev-devel package included within the SLE11 SP4 SDK installs
/usr/include/libudev.h.
