BIDI support in Debian Installer : help needed
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....
