Note that by selecting font-name, you're circumventing lilypond's font
table.

No, that only works for supported fonts.

Try:

\score {
    \context Staff\notes\relative c''{
        
        \property Score.BarNumber \override #'break-visibility = #all-visible
        
        c1-1
        
        \property Score.BarNumber \override #'padding = #3
        %\property Score.BarNumber \override #'font-name = #"pgml8r"
        \property Score.BarNumber \override #'font-name = #"pplr8r"
        d1-1
        \property Score.BarNumber \override #'font-magnification = #0.71
        e1-1
    }
    \paper{
        linewidth = 60.0\mm
    }
}

Have you installed the pgml8r font yourself?  It doesn't come with tetex.

Have you tried running with --verbose?
