Package: fonts-font-awesome Version: 5.0.10-1 Severity: grave Font-Awesome version completely changed everything, and any web applications that use it are now broken unless they go through some manual intervention.
https://fontawesome.com/how-to-use/upgrading-from-4 As a maintainer of multiple packages that use Font-Awesome, it would have been nice to receive a heads up and be given some time to adapt. But instead, now everything is broken and every single web appliction package that uses Font-Awesome needs to be changed to cope with the changes. I'm not sure how to move forward now. IMO either 1) revert the changes in fonts-font-awesome, and package the new release under a new name (e.g. fonts-font-awesome-5) or 2) revert the changes in fonts-font-awesome in unstable, upload the new release to experimental, and give people a few months to adapt. -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers unstable-debug APT policy: (500, 'unstable-debug'), (500, 'testing-debug'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental-debug'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.16.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=pt_BR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=pt_BR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=pt_BR:pt:en (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled -- no debconf information
