Title says it all really... I'm just mildly baffled as to the reason for this.
Should the unifont ebuild *really* depend on chkfontpath? Should unifont be
package.mask'ed too? I have CC'ed the ebuild submitter in the hope this "bug" can
be shot down quickly and not clutter up the place. Hope that's okay.

If we are not to unmask chkfontpath I'll remove chkfontpath from
unifont's ebuild (it isn't needed unless we want to automate
installation anyway). I knew it was marked unstable and committed
unifont but didn't notice chkfontpath was package masked (moreover, I
didn't know that foser didn't like the idea of making use of it then)

Ideas here?

Definitely it doesn't need chkfontpath, so I'll remove chkfontpath
from DEPEND and make some modification to unifont's ebuild tomorrow if
nobody is strongly against it. (In addition I'm going to mask current
chkfontpath for the sake of chkfontpath)

I added unifont-1.0-r1, which doesn't depend on chkfontpath
and p.masked unifont-1.0 accordingly.
