doc fails to build

[kenn]

I am on Ubuntu 16.04 platform.
I cloned the source code of NASM from `git clone https://git.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nasm`
then `./configure` ; `make everything`
It fails while building `doc` with the following error:

perl -I. ./rdsrc.pl -I./ dip nasmdoc.src
Reading input...done.
Fixing up cross-references...done.
Sorting index tags...done.
Producing Documentation Intermediate Paragraphs: done.
perl -I. ./genps.pl -epsdir "." \
 -headps ./head.ps nasmdoc.dip \
 > nasmdoc.ps
: no font found of: SourceSansPro-Semibold, ClearSans-Bold, Arial-Bold, Helvetica-Bold
Install one of these fonts or update psfonts.ph
Makefile:69: recipe for target 'nasmdoc.ps' failed
make[1]: *** [nasmdoc.ps] Error 29
make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/******/NewDesktop/Mart-2020/nasm/doc'
Makefile:412: recipe for target 'doc' failed
make: *** [doc] Error 2

How can I fix or work around that issue?

Funnily, it also spills some errors while trying to install from DEB repo:
