> I am on Debian Unstable

A little usage in the hope that it helps others running in to this issue, and
looking for workarounds ....

`Emoji One Color` was mentioned in
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=129523#c2,  Since there is
no such package in Debian Unstable (dtd. June 2022), I narrowed down to this
repo https://github.com/adobe-fonts/emojione-color. 

This repo has a release https://github.com/adobe-fonts/emojione-color/tags
which is dated Aug 2017.  5+ years seemed too old to me.  The homepage URL on
the repo  https://www.emojione.com/emoji/v2 was re-directing me to a different
website which seems to be associated with
https://github.com/joypixels/emoji-toolkit.

So, abandoned looking for `Emoji One Color` font, and setlted for
https://github.com/adobe-fonts/noto-emoji-svg/releases/tag/2.002.  I settled
for this because

- It is from `adobe`(?)
- has "Noto Emoji" in it's name
- .. more importantly it had "Color" in it's name.

This is what I did,


I removed `fonts-noto-color-emoji` that comes with Debian Unstable

```
~/Downloads$ sudo apt remove fonts-noto-color-emoji
```

Installed their namesakes from
https://github.com/adobe-fonts/noto-emoji-svg/releases/tag/2.002.


```
~/Downloads$ wget
https://github.com/adobe-fonts/noto-emoji-svg/releases/download/2.002/NotoColorEmoji-SVG.otf
~/Downloads$  mv NotoColorEmoji-SVG.otf ~/.local/share/fonts/
~/Downloads$  fc-cache -v
```

```
~/Downloads$  wget
https://github.com/adobe-fonts/noto-emoji-svg/releases/download/2.002/NotoEmoji.otf
~/Downloads$  cp NotoEmoji.otf ~/.local/share/fonts/
~/Downloads$  fc-cache -v
```

----------------

I am getting a "functional" pdf, without having to setup a font translation
table.  Contrary to the word "color" in the font, I am getting a black and
white glyph.  Not getting a color in final output PDF is a bit disappointing, 
but it "works for me".
