Okay you got a point about the fonts and characters thing. But
footprint-wise fribidi is smaller than pango. Not that much but still ! Here
are the stripped sizes :
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 58K 2004-04-19 12:10 /usr/lib/libfribidi.so.0.0.0
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 206K 2004-08-27 03:32
/usr/lib/libpango-1.0.so.0.400.1
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 148K 2004-08-27 03:32
/usr/lib/libpangoft2-1.0.so.0.400.1
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 43K 2004-08-27 03:32
/usr/lib/libpangox-1.0.so.0.400.1
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 17K 2004-08-27 03:32
/usr/lib/libpangoxft-1.0.so.0.400.1
