--- Comment #13 from Jerry James <loganjerry(a)gmail.com&gt; ---
FontAwesome 4.x and 5.x are different enough that it looks nontrivial to port
packages from one to the other.  This came up because I am trying to get
python-pydata-sphinx-theme into Fedora, and it requires FontAwesome 5.x.  I
cannot get it to work with the existing Fedora packages.

These packages directly require version 4.x.  None of them have newer upstream
versions that require 5.x.

- cantata
- freeipa
- ipsilon
- mkdocs
- plasma-applet-redshift-control
- python-XStatic-Font-Awesome
- python-sphinx_rtd_theme
- rubygem-font-awesome-rails
- texlive-fontawesome

This package requires version 5.x.  Since 5.x is not available from Fedora,
this package bundles the fonts.

- texlive-fontawesome5

These packages require version 4.x indirectly via python-sphinx_rtd_theme:

- coq
- libgpuarray
- libsemigroups
- python-BTrees
- python-acme
- python-f5-sdk
- python-networkx
- python-notebook
- python-streamlink
- python3-sphinx-ansible_theme

Note that a new version of python-networkx is available that uses the
aforementioned python-pydata-sphinx-theme instead of python-sphinx_rtd_theme,
so it will need version 5.x also after being updated.

I think it will be necessary to have both 4.x and 5.x versions in Fedora for
awhile.  We already have one package bundling 5.x.  If we don't want that to
keep happening, then we will need to put our collective heads together to
figure out how to get 5.x into Fedora.
