Ok well it gets a little further, it is happy with autoconf but now
doesn't like automake :(

Output is below

You need to use automake version 1.7 (preferrably 1.7.3).
automake: not found
You are using .
+ cd obj-avr
+ ../configure --prefix=/home/alexs/local/avrdude
./setup.sh: line 26: ../configure: No such file or directory
+ make distcheck
make: *** No rule to make target `distcheck'.  Stop.
