[Patternfly] Fontawesome path problem in patternfly.css

[Kanagaraj]

Hi Andres,

  I was trying something similar to what you mentioned below.

  I was blocked on importing patternfly.css into main.scss since there 
in no patternfly.scss

  As you mentioned in another mail, I will try to use patternfly.scss from

  https://github.com/patternfly/patternfly-sass/blob/master/sass/patternfly.scss


Thanks,
Kanagaraj

So even though i did override the path in _variables.scss, it did not have any impact. Still my browser says could not find the font. Is there anything wrong in what i am doing?

But this ends up having two copies of font-awesome, one inside patternfly.css another one in main.css. Now i don't see the font error in browser. Is this a reasonable workaround?
