[danny@f11 ~]$ file -z /usr/share/fonts/japanese-bitmap/knmhn12x.pcf.gz
/usr/share/fonts/japanese-bitmap/knmhn12x.pcf.gz: X11 Portable Compiled Font data (gzip compressed data, from Unix, last modified: Fri Mar 27 08:05:07 2009, max compression)

but I have a 32bit system and I see you have x86_64 packages: I can try 64bit test tomorrow
knmhn12x.pcf.gz: the same for 64bit /root/knmhn12x.pcf.gz: X11 Portable Compiled Font data (gzip compressed data, from Unix, last modified: Fri Mar 27 08:05:07 2009, max compression) so the files, which were deemed "empty" by file(1) are really empty files packed into pcf.gz: I don't understand purpose of empty fonts, maybe japanese-bitmap-fonts' package maintainer will tell us Hmm, it may be just a packaging bug. the original bitmap font from upstream is the bdf format and need to convert to the pcf format at the build time. let me see what's going on.
