Details:
While testing the scons build system I noticed that while Fribidi on my
system is detected, it doesn't have the same api as expected by wesnoth.
It appears that fribidi_utf8_to_unicode and fribidi_unicode_to_utf8 are being
more or less replaced by fribidi_unicode_to_charset and
fribidi_charset_to_unicode.
Fedora 9 (rawhide) comes with the prerelease version of Fribidi 2 and does
not have Fribidi 1.
Currently the autotools system does not think I have Fribidi installed and it
won't try to use it. The scons thinks I do have it installed but the build
fails because the apis don't match.
I think eventually we would want to detect which version (if any) was
available and use the appropiate api.
In the short run I can just disable it, because my interest was really in
testing the scons build system and I don't actually use the feature provided
by Fribidi.
Because this relates to the scons system (at least in part), I have
tentatively assigned it to ESR.
