Upgrade Bootstrap Icons used to latest version

[lindsayevanslee]

Description

In the documentation on Nav Items for _quarto.yml, it says that you can visit https://icons.getbootstrap.com/ to see the list of available icons. At this site, it shows you the latest version of Bootstrap icons, currently 1.13.1. However in the latest version of Quarto (1.7.31, which I installed today), I can see in the header of the bootstrap-icons.css file that is automatically rendered in my Quarto blog that the current version of Bootstrap Icons used by Quarto is 1.11.1. Digging through Bootstrap Icon releases, I see that v1.11.1 is nearly 2 years old.

I noticed this problem today as I tried to add the Bluesky icon to my site, which is available in the current version of Bootstrap Icons shown on their website, but is not available in 1.11.1 currently used in Quarto.

Is it possible to update the version of Bootstrap Icons used in the next release of Quarto? Or ideally, is it possible to keep the version of Bootstrap Icons used up-to-date automatically as new versions of Quarto are released?

Thank you!

We usually update dependencies once per release. It seems we Bootstrap icons was last updated almost 1 year ago.

I believe we can update it for Quarto 1.8.

Thanks for the feature request.
