Package: libfribidi-bin
Version: 0.19.2-3
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
I was helping someone with a bidi issue, and received the following message on
a debian command line:
The program 'fribidi' is currently not installed. To run 'fribidi' please ask
your administrator to install the package 'libfribidi0'
fribidi: command not found
The problem with that message is that the debian package for the command-line
utility is libfribidi-bin.
This became frustrating for me as that package was, in fact, already installed.
Please correct the (well-intentioned) 'helpful' message.
