  Thanks to all for replying. Don't know how but error solved this
time by adding
BuildRequires:  perl-XML-Parser
  which i did similarly for some packages last week while doing their
reviews but besides that they failed. I have reported this problem in
one of BUG to Paul Howarth (dont remember BUG number). Anyway if i
face again that problem will report back here.

Parag.
