for c in UnicodeSegmentation::graphemes("🏳️🌈", true) {
println!("{}", c);
}Outputs:
🏳️
🌈
🏳️
🌈
But should output:
🏳️🌈
🏳️🌈
Another example: 👮♀.
Is it UnicodeSegmentation bug or am I doing this wrong? For my current task this should be a single "character".

We're operating off an old unicode version (9) where that's not in the tables.

That may take a while to fix, but it may be worth updating to Unicode 10 in the interim (which is an easier update than 10 to 11), and will also fix your issue.
