Plasma uses emojis for some icons

pacman -Qs emoji

In addition there was https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 0#p2156020 and idk whether that's fixed in the repos.

fc-match sans
fc-match sans-serif

I read it, but still don't understand what to do. 

pacman -Qs emoji

local/haskell-emojis 0.1.3-10
    Conversion between emoji characters and their names
local/haskell-typst-symbols 0.1.4-2
    Symbol and emoji lookup for typst language
local/noto-fonts-emoji 1:2.042-1
    Google Noto emoji fonts

fc-match sans

NotoSansCJKsc-Regular.otf: "Noto Sans CJK SC" "Regular"

fc-match sans-serif

NotoSansCJKsc-Regular.otf: "Noto Sans CJK SC" "Regular"

The problems like this:

Please replace the oversized images w/ links, but that's not a font issue but actually your icon theme which doesn't provide the required icons.
Do you use https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/any/breeze-icons/ ?

Re: [SOLVED] Some display problems of icon in plasma6

It's indeed a problem with the icons. After I switched to Breeze, it's working fine. This issue occurred after upgrading to Plasma6. I have also tried replacing several other third-party icons, but none of them displayed correctly. So, I initially thought it wasn't an icon issue. Perhaps many third-party icons need to be re-adapted for Plasma6.
Thanks!
