Severity: grave
Control: affects -1 cider
Dear maintainer,
The latest upload introduces some new broken symlinks:
fonts-font-awesome: broken-symlink /usr/share/fonts-font-awesome/fonts/FontAwesome.otf -> ../../fonts/opentype/font-awesome/FontAwesome.otf
fonts-font-awesome: broken-symlink /usr/share/fonts-font-awesome/fonts/fontawesome-webfont.eot -> ../../fonts/eot/font-awesome/fontawesome-webfont.eot
fonts-font-awesome: broken-symlink /usr/share/fonts-font-awesome/fonts/fontawesome-webfont.svg -> ../../fonts/svg/font-awesome/fontawesome-webfont.svg
fonts-font-awesome: broken-symlink /usr/share/fonts-font-awesome/fonts/fontawesome-webfont.ttf -> ../../fonts/truetype/font-awesome/fontawesome-webfont.ttf
fonts-font-awesome: broken-symlink /usr/share/fonts-font-awesome/fonts/fontawesome-webfont.woff -> ../../fonts/woff/font-awesome/fontawesome-webfont.woff
fonts-font-awesome: broken-symlink /usr/share/fonts-font-awesome/fonts/fontawesome-webfont.woff2 -> ../../fonts/woff/font-awesome/fontawesome-webfont.woff2
This causes builds of other packages to fail, e.g. like this:
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/usr/share/mkdocs/themes/mkdocs_bootstrap/fonts/fontawesome-webfont.woff'
I think this will affect any package that build-depends on
mkdocs-bootstrap, of which there are many, hence the severity.
If the intention was to remove all these links, which NEWS.Debian
suggests it might have been, then the broken symlinks should still be
removed, though the bug severity should be lowered.
Thanks!
(P.S. great to see the upload was done with dgit)
