I noticed this in alaa's interview. /* >however it doesn't look like Mandrake tests their Arabic support (and unfortunately it seems the Arabic users community is not doing a good job of testing and bug reporting either), in Mandrake 10 OpenOffice would not render Arabic text correctly without installing FreeType packages made by PLF with the bytecode interpreter enabled, this problem is not inherit in OpenOffice since it worked fine with older versions. */
I doubt this is true. The MAPS project is specifically for serving this purpose. It yields some fruits. Please, take some time to know the latest status. I am sorry if I am not posting here when I commit a change but I have updated the page against the latest version Mandrake 10 some time ago. I have marked the bugs I tested (Fixed and Closed).
