You are asking about an RPM package on a Debian mailing list??  :-)

(Debian's latest cjk-latex is at 4.2.0-2.)  Anyhow, out of curiosity,
could you please tell us what system you are installing this
cjk-latex*.rpm package on?  Red Hat?  CLE?  Mandrake?  SuSE?

I didn't make the 4.2.0-16 RPM, but for Debian's cjk-latex,
the file jfs56.hbf is in a separate package called
"hbf-jfs56_1.0-2_all.deb", in which jfs56.hbf is in:

	/usr/share/fonts/hbf/jfs56/jfs56.hbf
and
	/usr/share/texmf/fonts/hbf/gb2312/jfs56/jfs56.hbf
	  (just a symlink to /usr/share/fonts/hbf/jfs56/jfs56.hbf)

And, in order for teTeX to find the file, /usr/share/texmf/fonts/hbf
must be in its search path.  Again, I don't know which version of
teTeX is on your system, but if it is new enough, there should be a line
like this in your /etc/texmf/texmf.cnf:

	% PostScript Type 1 outline fonts.
	T1FONTS = .;$TEXMF/fonts/type1//;$TEXMF/fonts/hbf//

Okay, HBF isn't really a PS Type1 font, but it seems to be the default
setting for teTeX 1.x.  To verify whether teTeX (or libkpathsea) can
find jfs56.hbf, run:

	kpsewhich jfs56.hbf

If it shows /usr/share/texmf/fonts/hbf/gb2312/jfs56/jfs56.hbf,
then it works.  If not, fix your /etc/texmf/texmf.cnf and run
/usr/bin/mktexlsr .  Hope this helps.
