Hello,
I also noticed, that the icons from the extension uBlock Origin are
missing, if the Debian version of the extension is installed, and I like
to offer another explanation:
When searching for instances of the Font Awesome, I found a symbolic
link in the extension uBlock itself:
/usr/share/xul-ext/ublock-origin/css/fonts/fontawesome-webfont.ttf
The symbolic link uses a double redirection to finally point to the real
font file at:
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/font-awesome/fontawesome-webfont.ttf
Now it seems, that the extension simply doesn't resolve that symbolic
link. I deleted the symbolic link and replaced it with the original font
file, and then everything worked fine!
The complete protocol in the terminal looks like:
root@debian:~# cd /usr/share/xul-ext/ublock-origin/css/fonts/
root@debian:/usr/share/xul-ext/ublock-origin/css/fonts# ls -l
