The naming of dc fonts in latex was changed in some version, the
12points was called dcr12 before but now is called dcr1200. The script
MakeTeXMF has not been updated which explain your problem.
But I have fixed recently this bug in the last mfdcfnt package. It
comes now with all suitable .mf files, so upgrade, be sure you do not
have any buggy files left in /var/spool/texmf/source. Your change to
.../web2c/texmf.cnf is no longer necessary but should be harmless.
