One potential issue with fonts-font-awesome 5 is that upstream changed their build system and now, the build system is closed source while the actual sources files (otf font, js, svg, less, sass and maybe other) are available. The upstream repository contains a mix of source files and generated files so I asked them which file are the source and which files are generated (see [0]) to be able to rebuild the generated files from sources.
