** Description changed: Unicode 13 was released a month ago. The Pango library needs to be updated for the new emoji sequences for emoji that are implemented by multiple emoji in sequence to appear as a single character instead of as separate parts. For instance, https://emojipedia.org/black-cat/ + + Pango is used by many apps (particularly GTK apps) to display emoji. By doing this update for Ubuntu 18.04 LTS now, it will be easier to get full Unicode 13 support once Ubuntu's color emoji font (fonts-noto- color-emoji) is released with Unicode 13 support in a few months. I don't believe a freeze exception is necessary for this improvement now. + References + =========- https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/pango/-/commit/06aab3539 + https://emojipedia.org/emoji-13.0/ + https://github.com/googlefonts/noto-emoji/releases
