Can you please verify? It looks like font-awesome was upgraded to version 5.0 which has filenames completely different from 4.x. See this bug for details: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=899124. Unfortunately there is no easy way to fix it. What we can do: - Port mkdocs to font-awesome 5.x. The MkDocs RTD theme is based on Sphinx RTD theme so the Sphinx version must be ported first. I do not see any related activity in https://github.com/rtfd/sphinx_rtd_theme yet. - Revert to using a bundled version of font-awesome 4.x, like it was the case before my 0.17.3+dfsg-1 upload (there can be problems with DFSG). - Package font-awesome 4.x as a new source package and use it until we are ready for 5.x. This looks like the best solution, but I do not have enough time or interest to maintain the old version of font-awesome. Considering that this change affects many packages, I hope someone from the fonts team will step up to do it. So for now I would prefer to wait until #899124 has some resolution and recommend you to build your packages with fonts-font-awesome from testing until this gets fixed. -- Dmitry Shachnev
