Ok. Then go to Google, put in "libfribidi0", and press enter. You'll then see lots of places to download it. You'd even find the source page:
http://fribidi.org/

You don't say what version/distro you're using, but chances are it's also in your online repos.

There is an official fribidi package for Slackware. Are you sure it isn't what you want?

If you use slackpkg, installing a package is as simple as:
Code:
slackpkg install fribidi
Or else you can download it and use installpkg to install it

Ok...so uncompress it, and tar it back up in GZIP. "tar xvfj *.bz2", then "tar cvfz filename.tgz /directory" And if you need to build it manually, then do it. Uncompress the file, and read the instructions.

Why on earth does OP needs to do that?
He looks for a Slackware package, that is an archive ending in tgz (or for newer Slack in txz), so he can install it using the Slackware package manager.

I agree totally. But the OP said he wanted a tgz, but could only fine tar.bz2. I don't understand why reading the instructions and installing manually is a big problem, nor why they couldn't install via package. Just going by what the OP posted.
