Well, in that case, it doesn't seem that I would make a package for 
arabtex. I just installed texlive-lang-arab, arabtex package is working 
fine with me. Btw, the arabtex in this texlive-lang-arab is not the 
up-to-date version.
As for arabi, it is not working well. For example when I tried to run latex 
on big2.tex, I got this error:

! LaTeX Error: File `pst-char.sty' not found.

Type X to quit or <RETURN> to proceed,
or enter new name. (Default extension: sty)

It did give out an output dvi file though.

But when I run latex against the other examples files (samplebook.tex &
testplaintex.tex) I got no dvi output.

Please find the full logs in the tarball attached with this email.
