[pkg-otr-team] Bug#767103: irssi-plugin-otr doesn't work with irssi 0.8.17

[intrigeri]

Dear team-mates,

I don't care enough about irssi-plugin-otr to dig further into that
bug. I don't understand how this can possibly break. Can anyone
reproduce this RC bug and look into it?

It might be an unspotted ABI breakage in libotr, who knows. David,
does irssi-plugin-otr do anything strange that could tie it up more
tightly than e.g. pidgin-otr into the internals of libotr?

Shall we ask the release team for a binNMU of irssi-plugin-otr, and
postpone understanding the root cause of the bug? I'm concerned that
it may occur again each time we upgrade libotr, but as far as Jessie
is concerned, this might be the way to go.

Cheers,
