Final Comment
I will accept this, since it is a binary-NEW package and is already in Debian, however you
should update the debian/copyright to reflect the licensing of the fonts in the docs/webfonts
folder. They are FontAwesome fonts and according to https://fontawesome.com/v4/license/ -
i.e. the SIL OFL 1.1.
While you're at it you could update debian/control http://soci.sourceforge.net/ to 'https'
Thanks!
