Sorry for wasting your time, I think I was wrong to raise this bug and it can be
closed.
I see that /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/OGRE/cmake/OGREConfig.cmake defines
OGRE_PLUGIN_DIR, and that this path contains a plugins.cfg file that includes
the correct PluginFolder filepath.
Therefore, no magic is
Package: libogre-dev
Version: libogre-1.12-dev
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
libogre-1.12-dev installs Ogre plugins to /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/OGRE -
however, by default, Ogre is not searching in this directory when loading
plugins at run time.
