It is as the documentation states. If you install a font and Gimp is still open, then refreshing the font forces Gimp to rescan. Saves having to shut Gimp down and restart. (applies to other resources as well - brushes - gradients -...all have a refresh button in their dock)
It is worth trying the font in the Gimp user profile ~/.config/GIMP/2.10/fonts
I also keep fonts in ~/.fonts when I want to share with Gimp / Inkscape / LO etc.
It might be that the font is just not compatible with Gimp, It sometimes happens. Can you share the font?
Just out of interest, which version of ubuntu.
