Bug Description

Please consider adding the pidgin-otr plugin to Pidgin Addons in GNOME Software. It would make installing this plugin a lot easier for end-users. Currently, there is only a SIPE plugin in the list.

Here's an AppData (metainfo) file for pidgin-otr from Fedora, it should work in Ubuntu without any modifications.

AsciiWolf, Ubuntu's pidgin-otr is synced from Debian. Please report this issue there.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. The issue you are reporting is an upstream one and it would be nice if somebody having it could send the bug to the developers of the software by following the instructions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Debian/Bugs . If you have done so, please tell us the number of the upstream bug (or the link), so we can add a bugwatch that will inform us about its status. Thanks in advance.

This will hopefully be fixed with the new pidgin-otr package release. But I think this probably won't happen before the Ubuntu 18.04 release. :-(

Unsubscribing the Ubuntu Sponsors Team; there's nothing to sponsor.
