I further discovered that when you download the source tarball that for
SDL_image 2.0 that it contains a spec file. So, I installed rpmbuild,
and I built it. Still, I had no success. Somehow, I installed libpng 
version 1.2. I somehow that that it was the latest. But, it turns out
under Fedora, you just install libpng-devel and it is the latest,
sans version number. Finally, after installing libpng-devel, I got
SDL_image 2.0 working.

Yay!

"There are two ways of constructing a software design. One way is to
make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies. And the other
way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies."
