Dear Youssef,

a user of arabi as part of TeX Live in the Debian/GNU Linux distribution
has reported a problem:

The same problem also exists in the files on CTAN, and probably shows up
on every system which has a case-sensitive filesystem (i.e. also on Mac
OSX).

What do you suggest?  Should we rename the file to Arabicore.sty with
capital A, or rather change arabic.ldf (and probably other files) and
replace Arabicore with arabicore?

Thank you in advance, Frank
