I have found it at

  http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/M17N/openSUSE_11.3/noarch/

But I still can't find the fonts of the former FZKaiTi, FZKaiTiB, FZFangSong, FZMingTiB, FZSongTi.

Am I right to assume that they have been dropped due to unsolved copyright issues?

Even if I install the old fonts which are still available on the net, CJK LaTeX partially uses
some of these fonts but then fails as follows: 
     
  /usr/lib/texmf/web2c/mktexnam: Could not map source abbreviation F for FZKaiTiB-uni8a.
  /usr/lib/texmf/web2c/mktexnam: Need to update /usr/share/texmf/fonts/map/dvips/skak/special.map?
  mktextfm: Running mf-nowin -progname=mf \mode:=ljfour; mag:=1; nonstopmode; input FZKaiTiB-uni8a
  This is METAFONT, Version 2.718281 (TeX Live 2009/openSUSE)

The old package contains the following files.

  /usr/share/doc/packages/FZKaiTiB
  /usr/share/doc/packages/FZKaiTiB/COPYRIGHT-Founder-clarification.txt
  /usr/share/doc/packages/FZKaiTiB/COPYRIGHT-Founder.txt
  /usr/share/fonts/truetype
  /usr/share/fonts/truetype/FZKaiTiB.ttf
  /usr/share/fonts/truetype/fonts.scale.FZKaiTiB

What in this is no longer sufficient for 11.3?
