Any ideas? It was working perfectly fine until the last Tumbleweed upgrade a couple of days ago. I just tried another zypper dup + zypper install --force fetchmsttfonts to no avail.
The problem manifests itself not only in KCharSelect but also elsewhere in the KDE interface. Copying and pasting emoji / Astral plane stuff works as usual in non-KDE applications such as LibreOffice and Thunderbird but not, e.g., in KWrite or Konsole (or xterm, though not sure if that ever had any proper Unicode support).
Note that if I change the font selection in KCharSelect to, for instance, Noto Color Emoji then it does work (https://i.imgur.com/VGlmxE4.png), but not with Noto Sans. However, I don't know if Noto Sans ever did show emoji, whereas my default Arial selection did, and the problem is not limited to KCharSelect anyway.
