Icon font rendering broken since 4.4.0

[hyperknot]

Scenario: using FontAwesome for icons on map markers, like this:

new ol.style.Style({
  text: new ol.style.Text({
    text: '\uF013',
    font: 'normal 30px FontAwesome',
  }),
})

This code works perfectly up till 4.3.4, but is broken starting from 4.4.0.

Will be in 4.7.0?

In 5.0.0 - there won't be any more 4.x releases.

How is it possible to get a build which fixes this? The https://openlayers.org/en/master/build/ol.js one, as of today, is still reproducing this bug.

The ol package has a 5.0.0-beta.5 version with the fix.

Is beta 6 also usable, or I'd better stay on 5?

When I last checked, there was no beta 6 yet. It's best to always use the latest, so use 6.
