If you want to see that in Ubuntu, you'd better suggest it be applied
upstream. Probably not important enough to justify an Ubuntu specific
patch.

Is that what this bug report is about? (The description is not crystal
clear.)

Title:
  Make sure color fonts work

Status in fontconfig package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Can someone please confirm that color fonts work in latest Ubuntu?

  Please install a sample font from:

    https://github.com/behdad/color-
  emoji/blob/master/specification/examples/PhantomOpenEmoji.ttf

  then, at least in Chrome, you should be able to see color glyphs
  correctly.  In other apps, you probably will see them grayscale, but
  they should be there and of the correct size.

  This requires a recent fontconfig, and hopefully with default config
  that doesn't mess up with bitmap color fonts.  All reports I've
  received say that it doesn't work, hence this bug.
