Hi Niko,

thanks for the bug report. I can confirm that unburden-home-dir
currently FTBFS due to this issue.

Done herewith as this indeed is a bug in mkdocs:

… and already filed: https://bugs.debian.org/901318

It seems caused by a change in the fonts-font-awesome package on whose
files mkdocs has symlinks to, which are currently broken. As far as I
can see, at least those two symlinks are affected:
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/mkdocs/themes/readthedocs/fonts/fontawesome-webfont.woff
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/mkdocs/themes/readthedocs/fonts/fontawesome-webfont.ttf

At least in my case it bailed out because of another file as in your case.
