@willemw:
Thanks! The workaround in this case is simple: via the dropdown menu tools > preferences in the general tab there's another dropdown that gives the option to choose the spyder2 icon theme. This prevents the issue from recurring for the time being until the incompatibility between qtawesome and pyqt5 5.12 is resolved.

Note:
Some dependencies may need to be manually downgraded or upgraded.
Alternatively, try to edit "install_requires" in "setup.py" and the requirements file ("requirements/conda.txt" in the source files or "requires.txt" in the installed files).
