this is because of a change in fribidi (0.19.2-1), which was included
into lucid on 2010-02-22:

  * Removed fribidi-config.1 since fribidi-config is removed from
    upstream.

I've checked mplayer trunk; there the same problem exists: configure
tries to use fribidi-config (which is not present) and fails to detect
the availability of fribidi.

until this if fixed, I'm going to remove the fribidi build dependency on
mplayer
