That's bizarre; it works for Len and Nikita for sure.

AFAIK, we never tried to compile gaim-otr on OSX, since there isn't
gaim there (at least, we didn't know of one).  But gaim-otr builds a
shared library; why is it complaining about missing symbols?  They'll be
provided by the application that links them.

[That's how it works on Linux, anyway; I know Windows is different:
.dll's have to have all of their symbols resolved, so you have to link
-lgaim to gaim-otr.dll.]

[Clearly, since you've got some gtk libs in your message, gtk and gaim
exist for OSX, so we were wrong.  Nikita: can you look into this and
maybe build a gaim-otr OSX package? (Or at least make the code compile?)]

Thanks,
