So, I looked into this. I think the issue is that the part of the text
where it fails is where it's talking about the i18n-fonts tarball.
It's not clear, but you're actually supposed to be in the i18n-fonts
source tree. In that case, there are no subdirectories in the afm
directory, only .afm files.

How to fix this? I don't know the right way to handle multiple
tarballs. I'm going to follow the teTeX way and just put the explicit
`tar -xf ...' into the page. Any other editor feel free to comment
here.
