Can you tell me when this version of fribidi and its patch to slang are gonna be in the Debian installer as I like to have them tested ASAP. I want to get some screen shots to get the translators motivated to get Arabic Support there ASAP :)
Your kind response is greatly appreciated

Shlomi Loubaton did some work on BIDI (BI-DIrectional langauges support) for Debian Installer.
He hacked the slang libraries so that some handling of BIDI is added to it.
This will probably need adding the libfribidi0 library to Debian Installer. Thus a libfribidi0-udeb package will probably need to be generated by the fribidi source package to be included in some Debian Installer initrds....
I tried to modifiy the fribidi source package to have it generated this udeb, but failed to do so, and I have to give this up for at least two days.
Can someone with good knowledge of packaging have a look into this and try to produce a patch for the fribidi package for having it generate a libfribidi0-udeb package. This udeb should have just ONE file�: /usr/lib/libfribidi0.so.0.0.0
Copy to Baruch Even, the fribidi package maintainer....
I have done so ; its present in http://people.debian.org/~mckinstry/fribidi for testing
- Alastair
Will diff out the patch and forward to Baruch Evan
