Hebrew LaTeX

[tactless]

I've emerged LyX and I <b>love</b> it. Absolutely superb program. I've successfully gotten it to use Hebrew by binding F12 to "language hebrew". The editor works perfectly with Hebrew. However, LaTeX doesn't accept Hebrew at all. Any Hebrew in the document generates fatal errors. Now, there's a package called <a href="http://ivritex.sf.net">IvriTeX</a> which adds Hebrew support to LaTeX, but I can't make anything of the .tar.gz file. Has anyone successfully installed this on Gentoo, made an ebuild for it, or gotten Hebrew working in LaTeX otherwise?
