Hi,

I've got the following bug report for fribidi about it's interaction
with slang2. Could you help with this?

You can test it easily with the following commands:
wget
http://cdimage.debian.org/pub/cdimage-testing/daily/i386/current/debian-testing-i386-netinst.iso
dd if=/dev/zero of=hd bs=1M count=250
qemu -cdrom debian-testing-i386-netinst.iso -hda hd -boot d

This will run the installer in a qemu session.
