Latest upgrade of texlive-lang-arabic leads to error
Dear TeX-Maintainers,
today's upgrade of texlive-lang-arabic in unstable led to an error, but succeeded when I upgraded it alone afterwards.
I downgraded it and texlive-xetex to the versions in testing and upgraded only these packages and to get the following output:
# apt-get install texlive-lang-arabic texlive-xetex
