Hi Alexis, Thomas, First of all I apologise for not replying in time. I'm bit occupied by family work so not getting enough time to deal with package.

Yes I agree that I should have followed usual transition process but I did not imagine a font package breaking things in this manner. Of course its not an excuse but I should have been careful, but what is done is done now. > > @Vasudev, what do you think about this ? > > (As far as I'm concerned, I'm ok with this and Thomas said it shouldn't > be a lot of work to do.) I've created basic package at ¹. If you or Thomas can adjust the package as needed and upload it to archive it would be great. Also please consider adding yourself as uploader as I might not have energy to maintain additional package. ¹ https://salsa.debian.org/fonts-team/fonts-font-awesomev4 Thanks and Regards, Vasudev. --
