Override/blacklist DejaVu emoji glyphs without making Emoji One Color the default font about emojione-color-font HOT 8 CLOSED

Yes, still looks like the best solution. Microsoft and Apple probably ship emoji characters in a separate font for this reason.

Short term goal: DejaVu Sans without emoji to ship with this font.
Long term goal: a DejaVu Emoji font in a pull request.

Just found some emoji in DejaVu Serif and DejaVu Sans Mono. I need to fork the whole family! Yay.

This font: https://github.com/eosrei/dejavu-fonts/commit/46ba8581cd599b4e4e247c5d3d19e02aa99f73fa with the following fonts.conf seems to work:

<fontconfig>
  <match>
    <test name="family"><string>sans-serif</string></test>
    <edit name="family" mode="prepend" binding="strong">
      <string>DejaVu Sans No Emoji</string>
      <string>Emoji One Color</string>
    </edit>
  </match>
  <match>
    <test name="family"><string>Apple Color Emoji</string></test>
    <edit name="family" mode="prepend" binding="strong">
      <string>Emoji One Color</string>
    </edit>
  </match>
  <match>
    <test name="family"><string>Segoe UI Emoji</string></test>
    <edit name="family" mode="prepend" binding="strong">
      <string>Emoji One Color</string>
    </edit>
  </match>
</fontconfig>

I've found a much better solution to this issue: Bitstream Vera! It's the basis for DejaVu and doesn't include all of these characters needing to be overridden. Bitstream Vera is going to be the default install recommendation going forward. Noto can work if modified to remove a few emoji from the regular fonts which IMO should be moved to Noto Emoji I'll open on that project about it.

DejaVu is the default font family for Linux. My provided fontconfig is the solution for this.
