--- Comment #5 from Jeremy Bicha <jbicha@xxxxxxxxxx> ---
Hi, I helped package nototools for Debian. I thought I'd leave some comments,
although some of them are just confirming what you already figured out.

nototools explicitly does not support Python 3 yet.

In Debian I excluded all of third_party/ except for ucd/ (I see that's the same
as is being done in the current .spec). The problem is that Google has made it
clear that it will patch the Unicode data and so it's not really the same as
the generic Unicode data that may already be in the distro.

The only real build dependency besides python I added was fonttools which was
only used for build tests.

nototools wants to install several scripts to /usr/bin/ . So far, the only one
I bother installing is add_vs_cmap (renamed from add_vs_cmap.py to comply with
Debian recommendations. Note that renaming means you will need to patch the
Noto Emoji build system and any other fonts that copy the build system for
there.)

If you do install the other scripts, be aware that some of them have
dependencies on other font related Python packages which might not be packaged
in your distro yet.
