Hello again, I managed to sort my problem for the default fonts at least: In /var/lib/defoma/gs.d/dirs/fonts/Fontmap Helvetica, Courier etc. were aliased to XxxUralic . dpkg -r ttf-uralic removed those, and now the standard fonts alias to Nimbus again. And even after reinstalling ttf-uralic, the standard fonts still alias to Nimbus.
HOWEVER: in Fontmap, AvantGarde-Bold is aliased to GothicUralicBold, and Bookman-Italic to BookmanUralicItalic -- and running gs on a file containing ' /AvantGarde-Bold findfont ' still results in an error: GPL Ghostscript 8.54 (2006-05-17) Copyright (C) 2006 artofcode LLC, Benicia, CA.

The problem seems to be that in /var/lib/defoma/gs.d/dirs/fonts/ , there is no link GothicUralicBold -> /usr/share/fonts/truetype/uralic/gothub__.ttf Should there be? There is a line resolving GothicUralicBold to .../gothub___.ttf in /var/lib/defoma/gs.d/psprint.private-subst-cache , but that file does not seem to be used by gs.
