Right. Apparently upstream has made changes a lot between 4 and 5.

If they are exactly same, that should works. but is it really same?

As it is stated at
https://github.com/FortAwesome/Font-Awesome/tree/4f4cb7c2f55d14d24f10390ebfeab0d25af612f3,
4 is EOL'd. the main package name should be provided for 5 or later.

> 3. leave the package as is and create fontawesome4-fonts for FA4

So this way looks good to me and better correcting something in the dependant
packages for 5 in the future.
