This is really a Ubuntu packaging issue, so re-assign to Till (Ubuntu
maintainer of ghostcript package) to contact the appropriate Ubuntu font
package maintainers. There are really two issues here - (1) the lack of an
appropriate cidmap file, and (2) also the font file itself is not on the font
path.

Each of Fedora's font packages put a cidmap file per font package inside
/usr/share/ghostscript/conf.d/, which is on the font path. Perhaps Ubuntu can
copy this design?

Marking Ghostscript task as invalid.

Marking also defoma task as invalid as Defoma is deprecated.
