Hmmm, I am not sure whether this is a problem of texlive-fonts-extra. This package depends on fonts-font-awesome and links the .otf file into the texmf tree, so nothing changes here. In addition, it installs the type1 font version /usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/fonts/type1/public/fontawesome/FontAwesome.pfb but this directory is not activated for X fonts. And even if it is, fontconfig should find the otf font, too, and deliver it. Do you have personal fontconfig configuration files that add specific directories to the fontconfig search path? In any case, can you use fc-list | grep -i awesome In my case I get: /usr/share/fonts/opentype/font-awesome/FontAwesome.otf: FontAwesome:style=Regular /usr/share/fonts/woff/font-awesome/fontawesome-webfont.woff: FontAwesome:style=Regular /usr/share/fonts/truetype/font-awesome/fontawesome-webfont.ttf: FontAwesome:style=Regular nothing that is touched at all by the TeX packages.
