there was no actual binNMU, was there? I've just uploaded a -2 of irssi-plugin-xmpp, this should fix the module ABI version error. This is another instance of #772479 and I filed #811445 against irssi in the hope that this can be handled with package dependencies and binNMUs on new major versions of irssi. > Rhonda, can you please have a look at why irssi changed where > it looks for plugins, and coordinate a fix with Florian? I had a look tonight, and my impression is that automake's $libdir now includes a multiarch triplet, which makes its way into irssi through a MODULEDIR define. I have adjusted irssi-plugin-xmpp to install the modules into a path based on DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH. If anyone can shed light on when this was introduced or if I'm mistaken and this is due to a change in the irssi source itself, I'd be interested to hear about it so I know what to do when backporting.
