[OTR-users] compiled plugin, how do I add it to gaim?

[Brian Wiese]

--- background --- I'm running ubuntu hoary, and unfortunately I did not 
find any .deb packages on the download page for OTR (just source and 
fedora), though there is documentation about howto install the deb 
packages.  Another issue, is I added debian unstable to my sources.list, 
but on 'apt-get update' it complained there was no GPG key for that 
source.  (off topic, but does anyone know how to disable that check -- I 
thought there was an additional gpg-apt package installed somewhere)

My problem now... is I got libotr[1] and otr[2] and did..
./configure && make && make install  -- for both successfully as root 
(no config options)

Where is my plugin at?  How do I add it to gaim?  It did not just 'show 
up' on the plugins list in gaim (after restart even).  Do I need to move 
the file to a certain directory? (I didn't see plugins/ in ~/.gaim or 
/etc/gaim)

Thanks in advance!
