Hi David, Thanks for the speed reply;

Thanks for that idea but unfortunately I am back to square one as the
--nodeps option does obviously make rpmbuild command continue on but
ultimately, drops out with the same error as when I manually build
xCache from the source when it gets to running phpize;

Cannot find autoconf. Please check your autoconf installation and the
$PHP_AUTOCONF
environment variable is set correctly and then rerun this script.

I can't understand why this is though, especially since autoconf and
autoheader are both listed by the rpm manage with;
rpm-qa | grep auto
automake-1.9.2-3
autoconf-2.59-5

So they really are there and clearly visible? What is the world coming to ay?

Thanks again for your input, back to square one for me then!

Regards,
James ;)
