Hi all,

I have seen this and will deal with it soon.  Have you contacted the
authors of the package to discuss this issue?

I also forgot to push my 1.2.1-1 changes to salsa, unfortunately.
Oops!  But that's history now.

Anyway, a quick check on testing shows that there are three packages
depending on python3-qtawesome: finalcif, openlp, python3-spyder.  I
know about python3-spyder (and it has the same upstream developers as
python3-qtawesome), but finalcif and openlp's maintainers might not
realise the issue and be surprised when they start getting bug reports
about icons missing (or the package failing) - it would be polite to
email their maintainers and uploaders before releasing this DFSG
version of the package.

Best wishes,

   Julian
