Pdftex error in moderncv: FontAwesome--fontawesometwo at 600 not found

I have the same problem here.

I think, the problem is, that the 'casual' of modernvc uses the fontawesome package, which only works with lualatex or xelatex.

When using

\moderncvstyle{classic}

instead of

\moderncvstyle{casual}

it works for me.

Since I like the 'casual' more than 'classic' I am still looking for a way to use it without fontawesome.

A manual activation using \usepackage{fontawesome} in the line just below \documentclass fixed the error for me.

Previously I tried reinstalling moderncv and fontawesome via Miktex-Console (Admin). I use pdfLaTeX.
