[OTR-users] pidgin-otr doesn't show in the plugins list after compiling on Xandros Linux

[Patrick Hall]

Thank you all for the quick and effective response over the holidays.

The corrective action, which works:
sudo cp /usr/lib/pidgin/*otr* /usr/local/lib/pidgin

Now, the only challenge - get others (mostly Mac users) on OTR.
