Read the PostGIS manual, where you can learn about its requirements:

http://postgis.org/documentation/manual-1.4/ch02.html#id2478443

Then you will find out that GEOS is a third-party requirement of PostGIS
and is not included in PostGIS source package.

You need to install GEOS with library and header files.
Check if the distribution of Linux you're using does provide
GEOS packages. If not, you need to build and install it from
sources according to "Build and Install" section here:
