RTFM?
yum install genius shows above message.
build from source...

checking for readline in -lreadline... yes
checking for __gmpz_init_set in -lgmp... no
checking for __gmpz_init_set_d in -lgmp2... no
configure: error: GMP Library not found

yet
# yum info gmp
Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit
Installed Packages
Name : gmp
Arch : i686
Version : 4.3.1
Release : 5.fc12
Size : 992 k
Repo : installed
 From repo : anaconda-InstallationRepo-200911081854.i386
Summary : A GNU arbitrary precision library

License : LGPLv3+
Description: The gmp package contains GNU MP, a library for arbitrary
precision
....
I.e. it is installed.

How to tell the build where to find it?
$locate gmp
/usr/lib/libgmp.so.3
/usr/lib/libgmp.so.3.5.0
/usr/lib/libgmpxx.so.4
/usr/lib/libgmpxx.so.4.1.0

I guess that is what's missing?

Anyway, read further on and
$yum install gnome-genius
and it works.
