That's a bug in gnome-themes-standard, not the bug we're discussing here about
fontconfig.

We already know, it's written as such in the package spec file:
http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/rpms/eosrei-emojione-fonts.git/tree/eo...

We know all this, but decided that it was the best solution for this purpose
already. There should be discussions about this on the Fedora Workstation list,
as well as in the GNOME bugzilla and/or wiki. If in doubt about any of those,
I'd be happy repeating those arguments on the fontconfig list, if you send an
email there and CC: me.
Resetting the status of the bug, as the problem in question was already fixed
in an errata.

[Bug 1509696] Drop google-android-emoji-fonts
by bugzilla@redhat.com
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1509696
--- Comment #1 from Mike FABIAN <mfabian(a)redhat.com> ---
This pull request removes it from the default
install
https://pagure.io/fedora-comps/pull-request/180#request_diff
I think that is good enough, there is no need to drop the package.
By the way, not all color emoji fonts are really up-to-date,
currently only "Noto Color Emoji" seems to have all the Unicode 10.0.0
emoji and render all the sequences from
http://www.unicode.org/Public/emoji/5.0/
correctly.
"Emoji One" lacks all the emoji added in Unicode 10.0.0 and
renders many sequences incorrectly which were already
defined in http://www.unicode.org/Public/emoji/4.0/ (released
when Unicode 9.0.0 was released).
The best black and white Emoji font currently is Symbola, it has
all the Emoji added in Uniocde 10.0.0 (and very nicely drawn
in my opinion). But it renders *all* Emoji sequences incorrectly.
*And* with the latest fontconfig update, colour emoji fonts are used
by default as long as any of the known colour emoji fonts is installed,
so Symbola would be used only as a fallback when no colour emoji font is
installed or the colour emoji font which is installed lacks some newer emoji.
