bash: fccache: command not found

Well!
fccache appears to reside in libfontconfig-devel and was not "required" by anything I asked for.
Basically I ran
setup -P lyx
and that way got, or seemed to get, or rather, thought I was getting, everything I could possibly need that was TeX-related.
1    I'll now ask for libfontconfig-devel.
2 This is rather esoteric and non-obvious, and yet evidently needed. Could the requirement be built in to setup.ini? 3 Or should I have known to ask for more than just lyx to get "all I could possibly need that was TeX-related"? I have to say, I zoomed in on this convenient catch-all only after much scrutiny of setup.ini and very careful note of what "required" what. Thanks very much, anyway. I'll pull down libfontconfig-devel and see how things go from there ...
