what Debian distribution are you using? unless you are still using
woody, you should be able to install lua and lua-sql with your preferred
package manager (aptitude, synaptics, ...)

 http://packages.debian.org/source/lua-sql

stable (etch) has only sqlite2, while testing (lenny) has sqlite3

if you want to compile it by yourself, you should install the
development package for sqlite3 (libsqlite3-dev) that contains the
missing .h file.
