Description Bill Nottingham 1999-06-23 16:00:26 UTC 
chkfontpath:
  requires  XFree86-xfs
XFree86-xfs
  prereq    shadow-utils
  req       initscripts >= 4.01
XFree86-75dpi-fonts
  prereq    chkfontpath

So, the order should be, IIRC:

shadow-utils
initscripts
XFree86-xfs
chkfontpath
XFree86-75dpi-fonts

However, when doing a base 6.0 install (default components),
the order is:

chkfontpath
shadow-utils
initscripts
XFree86-75dpi-fonts
XFree86-xfs

(oddly enough, with some other combination of components,
the xfs & 75dpi fonts order is swapped...)
