Proposed as a Freeze Exception for 38-beta by Fedora user ngompa using the blocker tracking app because: Having emoji work correctly out of the box on KDE Plasma is important given how often emoji show up in stuff now.

Editing the description in line with Akira's comments. There is no "missing" definition; there are definitions for the emoji family, with fallback through several fonts with Noto Color Emoji at the top, in /etc/fonts/conf.d/45-generic.conf . It is qt's problem that it apparently does not handle the 'emoji' family. This was already reported and the same incorrect proposed fix discussed, so closing as a dupe. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 1954359 ***
