Package: mfbasfnt
Version: 1.0-3

The metafont base fonts are missing important fonts, for example
cmbx14.

Here's an example:

$ xdvi example.dvi
kpathsea: Running MakeTeXPK cmbx14 300 300 1+0/300 deskjet
Running MakeTeXPK cmbx14 300 300 1+0/300 deskjet
Running mf \mode:=deskjet; mag:=1+0/300; scrollmode; input cmbx14
This is METAFONT, Version 2.71 (C version 6.1)

kpathsea: Running MakeTeXMF cmbx14.mf 
I don't know how to generate cmbx14.mf!
! I can't find file `cmbx14.mf'.
<*> ...jet; mag:=1+0/300; scrollmode; input cmbx14
                                                  
Please type another input file name: 
! Emergency stop.
<*> ...jet; mag:=1+0/300; scrollmode; input cmbx14
