This is logs from my browser showing 404 for glyphicons and fontawesome. This, again is after installing all dependencies, and precompiling assets for production.

Ack, i remember that these require some special config to work with Rails'
asset pipeline:
https://github.com/publiclab/mapknitter/blob/master/app/views/layouts/application.html.erb#L15

They must be excluded from the pipeline, or the font files must be included
in the assets directory (statically, i guess?). Not great.

In MapKnitter, we make the uncompiled bower dependencies world-readable by
putting their folder in /public/lib/ rather than in /vendor/assets/ -- we
could do the same here, and then not compile fontawesome?

(Glyphicons doesn't matter because it's overridden by FontAwesome.)

What do you think?

I'd rather try something like this: https://github.com/bokmann/font-awesome-rails
Basically, it says, add to the Gemfile:

gem "font-awesome-rails"

and then to the CSS file:

/*
 *= require font-awesome
 */

It would be my preferred solution.

[icarito]

I'll give it a try.

Hmm looks like this is exactly what it's trying to do. I'll debug it today.

[icarito]

This looks like an issue which is confusing a lot of people including me: bokmann/font-awesome-rails#113
After spending a great deal of time trying to debug this, I've fixed it 'manually' by copying the fonts files into the assets directory.

Super; sounds good. I wonder if we should just commit the static files
in... even if it's sort of "wrong" -- until we have a better solution, so
that folks downloading the source get a working copy.
