Hello,
I'm running Debian testing with US-American locales and have installed
their OpenOffice 1.1.0-1 package. My polyglot wife however would like to
be able to use OpenOffice to process - among other languages - Arabic,
so this is what I did:
For arabic I did:
- dpkg-reconfigure locales
--> generating ar_LB.ISO-8859-6 and ar_LB.UTF-8
- apt-get install xfonts-intl-arabic
- LANG=ar_LB openoffice (same problem with LANG=ar_LB.ISO-8859-6 or
LANG=ar_LB.UTF-8)
But this leads to: I18N: X Window System doesn't support locale "ar_LB"
Can you help me out with this?
