You need to have the php headers available to compile extensions against your installed php.

On my Debian system the php5-dev package includes the needed files:

apt-get install php5-dev

will make it possible to install extensions via pecl. There will be a similar package available for your machine.

Looks like you're also missing autoconf. Again the Debian package is called autoconf, you will find a similar package for your system.
