There was a bug report[0] about this on the debian package, and I've
committed a change to patches so that the css and js would show up
correctly, but the fix was not yet pushed out to a new package.

[0]: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=929515

in the meantime you can change your URL to use the /smokeping alias
instead of /cgi-bin -- this would look like the following for the main page:

http(s)://<myserver>.<mydomain>/smokeping

I'll see if I can push out the fix to debian soon so that URLs with
/cgi-bin/smokeping.cgi show up correctly again (this would remove the
need to change all URLs everywhere if you've linked to that from many
places)
