Personally, I was precisely asking if BiDi support is there. I know it is
translated.

Probably that is the end of the topic for me. As I don't use Debian (currently)
- I don't have it installed - and I don't have irc connection - I am behind a
firewall - I wouldn't be able to participate much.

I was thinking about helping in testing bidi in slang, and probably developing,
but if the problem is packaging then, well..
