AFAIK, there's is no such thing. (Generally the first place to check |
| 13 |
would be bugs.gentoo.org, which shows that nothing by the name of |
| 14 |
arabtex exists.) |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
There was some effort on making a g-ctan script which like the g-cpan |
| 17 |
script (which installs perl packages from CPAN) can install CTAN |
| 18 |
packages, it is at http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=85411 |
| 19 |
but I am not quite sure whether it would work or not. |

Your best bet is to just install the package yourself directly from |
| 22 |
CTAN, installation notes and list of files are here: |
| 23 |
ftp://ftp.informatik.uni-stuttgart.de/pub/arabtex/install.txt |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
and follow the installation advice |

Best of luck |
