You seem to be
a) missing the libxml2-dev package for Debian:
sudo apt-get install libxml2-dev
b) once again ignoring the fact that XML is available for you as a
binary Debian package via
sudo apt-get install r-cran-xml'
c) also ignoring the fact that, should you still insist on building it
yourself, that
sudo apt-get build-dep r-cran-xml
would do step a) for you
d) forgetting that we repeatedly recommended r-sig-debian as a more
suitable mailing list to you.
