* Complex Text Layout support libraries
Emacs needs the optional libraries "m17n-db", "libm17n-flt", "libotf"
to correctly display such complex scripts as Indic and Khmer.
On some systems, particularly GNU/Linux, these libraries may be
already present or available as additional packages. Note that if
there is a separate `dev' or `devel' package, for use at compilation
time rather than run time, you will need that as well as the
corresponding run time package; typically the dev package will contain
header files and a library archive. Otherwise, you can download and
build libraries from sources.
On GNU and Unix systems, Emacs needs the optional libraries "m17n-db",
"libm17n-flt", "libotf" to correctly display such complex scripts as
Indic and Khmer, and also for scripts that require Arabic shaping
support (Arabic and Farsi). On some systems, particularly GNU/Linux,
these libraries may be already present or available as additional

The sources of these libraries are available by anonymous CVS from
cvs.m17n.org.

because you lack some other packages on which m17n-lib depends, try to
configure it with the option "--without-gui".
Note that Emacs cannot support complex scripts on a TTY, unless the
terminal includes such a support.
