Well, the answer is in the output:
> configure: error: "ODBC headers sql.h and sqlext.h not found"
That's an installation issue with ODBC, not an R issue as such. Usually
a development package is missing, but exactly which one depends on your
particular flavour of Linux. In Fedora 13, it is here:
$ rpm -qf /usr/include/sqlext.h
unixODBC-devel-2.2.14-12.fc13.i686
so the unixODBC-devel package is required. In e.g. Ubuntu, it is -er-
somewhere else...
