It is a good starting point to download the source rpm and look at the packages that you need to have installed to build the package.  These should be pretty much the same for the more recent version of the package (the yum install... and yum-builddep will need to be run as root):

yum install yum-utils rpm-build
yumdownloader --source oprofile
yum-builddep ./oprofile*.rpm

You can see what they are your self with:

rpm -Uvh oprofile*.rpm
more ~/rpm/SPECS/oprofile.spec

It looks like you are missing popt-devel.  You will need to install that.  There may be some other packages that you need to install besides that.
