It is a bug exactly because of the way Jonas has described. If there has to be a font which needs to be installed, it should be installed system-wide where other packages could also use the font if they wanted/needed. Having it installed it system-wide with a symlink to a custom location is how it has been done for a long time and do not need see a need to have it special-cased just because it's mozilla. The font should be installed and be available . I just tried - └─[$] fc-list | grep emoji [$] and as can be seen it didn't give any output. This has also been shared in debian-policy https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-customized-programs.html#s11.8.5 Hope the above gives a bit more insight why we think it's an issue. -- Regards, Shirish Agarwal शिरीष अग्रवाल My quotes in this email licensed under CC 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ http://flossexperiences.wordpress.com EB80 462B 08E1 A0DE A73A 2C2F 9F3D C7A4 E1C4 D2D8
