The ALSA thing is a bug, as --enable-alsa does not work (the result is
identical to giving --disable-alsa).
--disable-pyecasound has the same bug (--disable-pyecasound and
--enable-pyecasound cause the same result), but with an additional new bug
in 2.2.2 that causes --disable-pyecasound to fail if python-devel files
are found (... pyecasound will be built even with the disable option).

So to get around this specific problem is to compile without
--disable-pyecasound. This should work on your machine, as you don't have
the python-devel files installed.

This is caused (hopefully) by the previous problem.
