I was referring to the fact that for terminus-fonts we see 2015-09-10 19:57 0 etc/ [...] 2015-09-10 19:57 0 etc/X11/ 2015-09-10 19:57 0 etc/X11/fontpath.d/ 2015-09-10 19:57 0 etc/X11/fontpath.d/terminus:unscaled -> /usr/share/fonts/terminus whereas for xorg-x11-fonts-dpi75 we see only 2015-09-10 20:44 0 etc/X11/fontpath.d/xorg-x11-fonts-75dpi:unscaled:pri=20 -> /usr/share/X11/fonts/75dpi and similarly for the other xorg-x11-fonts-* packages. I interpreted this as meaning that /etc/X11/fontpath.d wouldn't get created, but maybe I was wrong. In any case, it apparently didn't get created for the OP, and I had the same experience. On the other hand, it gets created when I manually unpack the tarball, so I don't know what's going on.
