The DESC file you need is included in the groff distribution, but seems not to have been placed where groff can find it. This file placement normally happens when you run `make install', after configuring and making your scratch compiled build. If you don't want to complete the `make install', you can use the `-F <font_path>' option, as suggested by Werner, or you can set and export `GROFF_FONT_PATH=<font_path>' to achieve the same effect.
