Difference between Prereq: and Requires:

["Diane Reichlen" <dreichlen symantec com>]

I am trying to build an rpm that will be installed any time after the
kernel is installed during a RedHat 7.1 installation.  From reading through
this mailing list I saw reference to pkgorder, prereq and require.  What is
the difference between using Prereq and requires?  I have looked through
the Maximum RPM documentation and can find nothing on "Prereq".

Thanks,
Diane
