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.
