Hello,

Thank you for the report.

The issue is that Syncthing now uses fontawesome v5 but it is not yet
available in Debian. (See #902981)

It isn't as easy as forcing the use of v4 because Syncthing has switched
to using the "fas" prefix that was introduced in fontawesome v5.

I have worked on a patch that adds the "fas" prefix to fontawesome v4.

However, I am facing other incompatibilities as there are many icons
that have changed name.

I don't really know what is the best solution here, maybe I can merge my
patch until something better is available.

Cheers,
