There is what passes for a Release announcement at
[https://opensource.googleblog.com/2016/10/an-open-source-font-system-for-
everyone.html
] found from a /. link to [http://hothardware.com/news/noto-google-

URL https://www.google.com/get/noto
472.6 MB for all, or download the individual font(s).
From memory, for kf5 users, Noto Sans is used for gtk applications.
Perhaps it is now used instead of oxygen fonts by kf5 itself (the script
to start kde), but I have no idea and that is probably still something for
the future.
Unless people need non-latin languages, I suggest downloading ONLY Noto
Sans (657 KB, NotoSans-hinted.zip) but I have no intention to test if that
is adequate, nor to look at what it covers.
The "everything including the kitchen sink emojis" file is (still) called
Noto-hinted.zip, perhaps th ere is nothing to do ?
