Ok, I figured out the problem and managed to install the fonts properly.
But now another problem, the fonts.dir files created by mkfontdir is
completely empty, even if I run:-
mkfontdir /path/to/fonts(in this case, /usr/local/lib/X11/fonts/misc)
I just get a file with 0 which means that mkfontdir wasn't executed
properly. Can anyone please help?
Thanks in advance.
