On top of Bug 8375
If you print a label using arabic/hebrew script,
letters are printed in logical direction, from left
to right, giving a mangled result
This patch will try to fix those cases adding a new
perl dependency, Text::Bidi, and using the automagic
feature if it's log2vis() function to rearrange chars
based on detected text 'direction'
To test:
1. Install Text::Bidi package
(apt-get install libtext-bidi-perl)
2. Try a batch, using Helvetica, with a mix of
ltr and rtl (arabic/hebrew) titles, chars are good,
but direction is bad
NOTE: I suggest changing the mapping for 'HO' font
on koha-conf.xml, from DejaVuSans-Oblique.ttf to
DejaVuSans.ttf to view 'title' chars
3. Apply the patch
4. Try again, now the result is good
Formerly a followup of Bug 8375, look sample pics
on that Bug.
Rebased following changes on Bug 8375
Note: Arabic titles will not be displayed, because
current code selects Oblique variant (unless you
change mapping as suggested on 2. )
Hebrew looks good.
Rebased and move use of new dependency to Labels.pm
Rebased on master

Tested with the help of Bernardo. With the patch
the characters of RTL strings appear in the correct
order in the generated PDF files.

The last use of the POE family of Perl modules went away with
the removal of zebraqueue_daemon.pl per bug 9001. Consequently,
this patch removes POE as a dependency.
To test:
[1] Verify that "git grep POE" and "git grep libpoe" report
nothing.
[2] Verify that koha_perl_deps.pl -a does not report POE
as a dependency.
[3] (extra credit) verify that Debian packages can be built
that do not list libpoe-perl as a dependency.
This patch also updates some distro-specific installation
instructions and scripts, but makes no representations about
whether those instructions currently work.
