Title:
Update fonts-noto-color-emoji for Unicode 15
Status in fonts-noto-color-emoji package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in fonts-noto-color-emoji source package in Jammy:
In Progress
Bug description:
[Impact]
Ubuntu has included Google's color emoji font by default for years.
Annually, the Unicode Consortium releases a new Unicode standard with
new emoji. Internet communication platforms quickly adopt the new
emoji and it's important that those emoji also work on the latest
Ubuntu release.
Emojipedia provides a list of the emoji provided by this font.
Click the Show new link to see the new emoji. Click the changed link
to see other changes that were made in this release.

[Test Plan]
The test plan is outlined on this wiki:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/TestPlans/EmojiFont
[Where problems could occur]
Sometimes there is an issue with the display of a particular font
after the font has been updated. See Debian #788791 for instance.
Perhaps this is a bug with font caching. To avoid this bug, it's
recommended to restart your computer after applying the update.
We are adding a postinst to tell Ubuntu's update-notifier to prompt
the user to restart.
This could technically be a User Interface Freeze change, but the new
and changed emoji don't show in the Ubuntu docs or official
screenshots. So there doesn't seem to be a need to notify the Docs
team. There are no translations here so no need to notify the
Translations team.
