A quick git grep in debian-installer.git seems to return only those:
build/pkg-lists/gtk-common:ttf-freefont-udeb
build/pkg-lists/gtk-common:ttf-cjk-compact-udeb
build/pkg-lists/gtk-common:ttf-dejavu-udeb
ttf-cjk-compact-udeb is under our control.
There's also this hit in cdebconf-terminal:
Depends: cdebconf-gtk-udeb, ttf-dejavu-mono-udeb, ${shlibs:Depends},
${misc:Depends}
https://packages.debian.org/unstable/ttf-freefont says ttf-freefont is a
transitional package, pulling fonts-freefont-ttf from src:fonts-freefont.
That source package builds fonts-freefont-udeb which might be used to
replace ttf-freefont-udeb? The file lists seem to suggest this wouldn't
be too crazy, and we would get a few bug fixes/improvements, if dates
can be trusted as references:

The same might go for ttf-dejavu-udeb and ttf-dejavu-mono-udeb, compared
to fonts-dejavu-udeb and fonts-dejavu-mono-udeb.
This seems to be confirmed for the non-mono variants:
(sid-amd64-devel)kibi@wodi:/tmp/1$ debdiff ttf-dejavu-udeb_2.33-3_all.udeb
fonts-dejavu-udeb_2.35-1_all.udeb

But also for the mono variants:

Version: [-2.33-3-] {+2.35-1+}
One should note the file differences come from the ttf-dejavu vs. dejavu
directory.
tl;dr: Based on the investigation above, I'd be tempted to:
1. Replace ttf-* occurrences with fonts-* ones for everything except
ttf-cjk-compact, since all bits seem to already be in place.
fonts-dejavu and fonts-freefont maintainers, do you concur?
This would post-alpha 1.
2. Rename ttf-cjk-compact* to fonts-cjk-compact* later if we really
want to get consistency. There's no potential improvement to gain
here, compared to the situation for the previously mentioned packages.
