Subject: irssi-plugin-otr: mismatching ABI version with current irssi

Date: Fri, 18 Mar 2016 12:12:01 +0100

Package: irssi-plugin-otr
Version: 1.0.0-1+b2
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Hi,
as of latest update the otr plugin is unloadable (/load otr fail in relation with https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=817172 )
but even if the plugin is manually loaded via

/load /usr/lib/irssi/modules/libotr.so

you get the error

Irssi: otr/otr is ABI version 0 but Irssi is version 1, cannot load

rendering the plugin completely useless.
Let me know how/if i can help,
thanks

Someone (who can first verify that this would fix the problem) should
get a binNMU scheduled, I guess :)

While this would probably make the package installable again, this is
not the proper fix. Next bump and this happens again.

irssi needs to arrange to provide a virtual package, e.g. irssi-abi-1
and must ensure that plugins pick up a proper dependency on this virtual
package. Once the abi changes (and the virtual package is renamed), this
will visibly trigger a transition.

There are several packages in the archive doing this, I think proftpd is
one of them.

I have built a new package for 1.0.1 that should fix some of the issues
mentionned here, and it is available for testing here:

http://paste.anarc.at/otr/

the changes file is signed with my pgp key and should be used to
authenticate the package.

unfortunately, i can't test the peculiar conditions those bugs manifests
themselves in - my irssi setup is still on jessie, so i'd rather have
other testers before uploading to sid.

thanks for any feedback.

Yes, thanks for clarifying.

In passing: I've no clue how many other irssi plugin packages are
affected as well. This can't be just irssi-plugin-otr, can it?

I don't know.

But before anyone starts working on this now - i have what i think is a
working package now here:

http://paste.anarc.at/otr/

It's been tested by a friend, but i would appreciate more
testing. Waiting for an upstream release for a bit now to avoid
packaging a snapshot.

I tried this package today and when I did '/load otr', I would get this
in irssi:

15:38 -!- Irssi: otr/otr is ABI version 0 but Irssi is version 2, cannot load

apt-cache search irssi-plugin tells me there's only -plugin-xmpp and
-plugin-robustirc…

For the record, I have uploaded a new package there and I have had
information from another user that it works. You may want to try again.

I just grabbed that package and installed it, on my up-to-date sid
system, ran irssi and then did '/load otr', and I got:

18:36 -!- Irssi: otr/otr is ABI version 1 but Irssi is version 2, cannot load

Interestingly, the ABI version increased by one, but it needs one more
to get to '2'.

That was the wrong URL, the proper one is:

http://paste.anarc.at/otr/irssi-plugin-otr_1.0.1+f75eb26-1_amd64.deb

sorry. you should use dget anyways to verify the signatures first:

Thinking more about this, I am not sure this will be necessary. There is
an effort underway to merge OTR in the main irssi package, and there are

the effort.

Surely this is a bug that should be reported against irssi in any case.
