This font has been added/updated to upstream just 25 days ago and I
don't think we have got that update (appstream-data package) in Fedora
27 yet but I can see update for rawhide is available. See the upstream
repo https://github.com/hughsie/createrepo_as_logs/tree/master/u and
downstream package at
https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=18639
