That's a bug in gnome-themes-standard, not the bug we're discussing here about
fontconfig.

We already know, it's written as such in the package spec file:
http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/rpms/eosrei-emojione-fonts.git/tree/eosrei-emojione-fonts.spec#n8

We know all this, but decided that it was the best solution for this purpose
already. There should be discussions about this on the Fedora Workstation list,
as well as in the GNOME bugzilla and/or wiki. If in doubt about any of those,
I'd be happy repeating those arguments on the fontconfig list, if you send an
email there and CC: me.

Resetting the status of the bug, as the problem in question was already fixed
in an errata.
