Bug Description
Please sync irssi-plugin-xmpp 0.53-1 (universe) from Debian unstable (main)
Looking at LP: 1579545, irssi-plugin-xmpp appears to be completely broken in
Xenial, due to
1) ABI breakage by a newer version of irssi without corresponding rebuild
(binNMU) of irssi-plugin-xmpp
2) Use of multiarch library path in newer version of irssi
Both issues were discussed in #817171 and subsequently fixed in
irssi-plugin-xmpp 0.52+git20160118-2, which unfortunately was not synced to
Ubuntu before the Xenial release.
irssi-plugin-xmpp does not have reverse dependencies, so updating it should
be low-risk. (If you update to 0.53-1 instead of 0.52+git20160118-2, I don't
know how well the daily update process copes with the transition from -dbg to
-dbgsym packages?)
To my knowledge, Yakkety is not affected.

Could you please add a test case? I'm going to upload -2 as a stable update but for it to be accepted there needs to be a reproducer on this bug.
Thanks :)
