Fonts don't work with a full texlive installation on Ubuntu 20.04

I've installed the full TeX Live on my laptop running Ubuntu 20.04, using
the following command:

$ sudo apt install texlive-full

After installation, I am able to run latex, pdflatex, etc., but compilation
fails whenever I try to specify a font.

Example: test1.tex contains

\documentclass{article}\usepackage{tgbonum}
\begin{document}
Hello world \LaTeX
\end{document}

Compiling it produces the following output:

$ pdflatex test1
This is pdfTeX, Version 3.14159265-2.6-1.40.20 (TeX Live 2019/Debian)
(preloaded format=pdflatex)
