Updating to the google-noto-emoji-fonts-20170928-1.fc26.noarch
package fixed
the problem of the "Noto Emoji" font causing an X error.
This font package has been split:
google-noto-emoji-fonts now contains only "Noto Emoji" (scalable black and
white font)
google-noto-emoji-color-fonts contains only "Noto Color Emoji" (Coloured bitmap
font)
Unfortunately, if the
google-noto-emoji-color-fonts-20170928-1.fc26.noarch
package is installed not only does the "Noto Color Emoji" font cause an X
error but the "Noto Emoji" font also causes the error again.
That is only because the default fontconfig rules enforce the use of color
emoji fonts if available, see:
/etc/fonts/conf.d/60-generic.conf which contains:
<!-- Prefer to match color emoji font. -->
<match>
<test name="lang">
<string>und-zsye</string>
</test>
<test qual="all" name="color"
compare="not_eq">
<bool>true</bool>
</test>
<test qual="all" name="color"
compare="not_eq">
<bool>false</bool>
</test>
<edit name="color" mode="append">
<bool>true</bool>
</edit>
</match>
Because of this, even if you request "Noto Emoji", what you actually get
is "Noto Color Emoji" unless this font is not installed at all.
If the google-noto-emoji-color-fonts-20170928-1.fc26.noarch package
is
uninstalled, "Noto Emoji" will not cause an X error.
Because then there is no "Noto Color Emoji".
