This font package has been split:

google-noto-emoji-fonts now contains only "Noto Emoji" (scalable black and
white font)
google-noto-emoji-color-fonts contains only "Noto Color Emoji" (Coloured bitmap
font)

That is only because the default fontconfig rules enforce the use of color
emoji fonts if available, see:

/etc/fonts/conf.d/60-generic.conf which contains:


    <!-- Prefer to match color emoji font. -->
    <match>
        <test name="lang">
            <string>und-zsye</string>
        </test>
        <test qual="all" name="color" compare="not_eq">
            <bool>true</bool>
        </test>
        <test qual="all" name="color" compare="not_eq">
            <bool>false</bool>
        </test>
        <edit name="color" mode="append">
            <bool>true</bool>
        </edit>
    </match>

Because of this, even if you request "Noto Emoji", what you actually get
is "Noto Color Emoji" unless this font is not installed at all.

Because then there is no "Noto Color Emoji".
