The url was shortened when you quoted his mail.  The url from his mail

The code applies to Debian.  You need to change "/usr/share/fonts/X11"
to the Arch convention which is "/usr/share/fonts".

Now, the code says to use the "touch" command as root in every
directory inside "/usr/share/fonts/X11" but in Arch case, it should be
inside "/usr/share/fonts".  This basically updates your directories
timestamp to the present.
