Grrr. If this issue had actually used the text of the error message here rather than linking to an SO question I would have found it and not just wasted twenty minutes writing a new issue and only discovering this issue at the last minute before hitting submit!!

Seems this is still a problem with the current CRAN version (2020-05-12) so I'm surprised its not hitting more people - oh, only we oldies compile from source now, right? Anyway, some search engine fodder follows so the next person can catch it...

configure: error: proj_api.h not found in standard or given locations.

Ubuntu 18.04

Fix by installing latest from github: devtools::install_github("r-spatial/lwgeom") until CRAN version updated.
