This is a Freeze Exception request for F27 to make sure we have the preferred color emoji fonts installed by default for Fedora Workstation. Color Emoji support is a GNOME 3.26 feature where the default package set changes in Fedora fell through the cracks; Fedora Workstation WG is requesting a freeze exception here to pull this in. Please grant a FE for the following two changes: 1) https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2017-a1b250db9b 2) https://pagure.io/fedora-comps/pull-request/180
Any comment on the argument in the update that having a hard requirement isn't a good approach here?
comps doesn't work for upgrades
Discussed during the 2017-11-06 blocker review meeting: [1] The decision to classify this bug as a RejectedFreezeException was made as this is only a minor update and we feel that it is too far into the release cycle to mess with comps and core package requirements for such an update.
