They are placed there by fmtutil-sys. To reproduce: - uncomment the "cyrtex" line in /etc/texmf/fmt.d/01tetex.cnf - run "fmtutil-sys --cnffile /etc/texmf/fmt.d/01tetex.cnf --all" (everything as root). This creates a bunch of .tfm and 600 DPI .pk fonts in /var/lib/texmf/fonts. Then when a non-root user needs these .pk fonts at another resolution, they are created in the current directory.
