Public bug reported: 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/
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. https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/pango/-/commit/06aab3539 ** Affects: pango1.0 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: focal -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1871972 Title: Update pango for Unicode 13.0 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pango1.0/+bug/1871972/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
