If you are asking for help to compile Wine on CentOS 7, the WineHQ forums are a
better place for such questions. Based on your description I assume there is
nothing wrong with the guide for Fedora, and that it just does not apply for
CentOS 7. It is possible that the "missing" packages are just called
differently, or that Cent OS does not provide them in their official
repositories yet.

Some time ago Cent OS 7 had no support for 32-bit at all
(https://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=23434) making it basically
impossible to compile Wine. If this has changed in the meantime (and the
support is sufficient for Wine) we might also want to consider providing WineHQ
packages.
