When doing "rpm -ivh <url to xorg-x11-fonts-ISO8859-1-75dpi> " there
does't seem to be another uri pointing to another rpm that will satisfy
the dependency that i can add to the command line.
but then we aren't using yum

We're using xorg-x11-font-utils-7.1-2 on SL5.4 and I've noticed that
the header for the rpm says it requires "mkfontdir". Should that not
be either '/usr/bin/mkfontdir' or 'xorg-x11-font-utils'?
Just having 'mkfontdir' seems to break things when using "rpm" to
install the package".
What do you mean by 'sees to break things'? Without any knowledge what
goes wrong we can only speculate what the issue might be. I assume you
know that rpm does nothing to resolve the requirements...
