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.
According to the Ghostscript upstream developers this is a problem of the ttf-mscorefonts -installer. See
