installing Microsoft fonts: chkfontpath not found

[manifestoe]

Try this instead ...

rpm -i
https://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/mscorefonts2/rpms/msttcore-fonts-installer-2.2-1.noarch.rpm

This rpm installs the fonts from sourceforge at install time, it does not
contain the fonts.  In addition, it pulls in updated fonts from the EUupdate
font set, and installs the fonts correctly to X core and Xft.

chkfontpath is old.  mkfontscale, mkfontdir, fc-cache are more up to date. 
also, /etc/fonts/conf.d and /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d.

You need to use all those to add the fonts to Xft and X core.  But that's
all in the above rpm.
