Debian packages website lists `xfonts-base` package which contains this font: https://packages.debian.org/stable/all/xfonts-base/filelist. Not sure about Debian, but usually (NixOS, Arch) such package comes along with X server by default. Fixed fonts unavailability may be explained by bitmap fonts being disabled system-wide (what I've never encountered): http://marklodato.github.io/2014/02/23/fixed-fonts.html .

Yes, it reproduces the problem. The first line has non-bold text. The
second line has bold text of bigger size.

You don't happen to know what package this font lives in on Debian?
