+  Emoji One Color SVGinOT Font
+  https://github.com/eosrei/emojione-color-font
+
+  The DejaVu font family is based on the Bitstream Vera font family to provide
+  greater unicode coverage. The only way to override the emoji it includes is
+  to make the emoji font the primary system font. This shouldn't be a problem,
+  but a number of programs do not correctly use font fallback resulting in font
+  rendering errors everywhere.
+
+  This font.conf makes Bitstream Vera the default font for Serif, Sans-Serif,
+  and Monospace font requests since it does not contain any Unicode Emoji
+  characters. Emoji One Color font is the first fallback, followed by DejaVu
+  to provide everything else.
+
+  Test with:
+  fc-match -s serif
+  fc-match -s sans-serif
+  fc-match -s monospace
