#16976: plugin loading issue under 3.0.0hg

Milestone:           |  Component:  unclassified
  Version:  3.0.0hg  |   Keywords:  gplugin errors
---------------------+----------------------------
 I have installed libnice from https://github.com/tieto/libnice , gplugin-
 hg, purple-hg and pidgin-hg from the AUR and sipe from
 https://github.com/tieto/sipe under Arch Linux x64.

 When I start pidgin from the terminal I see warnings (for such libsipe.so)
 such as these:


 {{{
 (Pidgin:949): GPlugin-WARNING **: failed to query
 '/usr/lib/purple-3/libsipe.so' with loader 'GPluginNativeLoader': the
 query function did not return a GPluginPluginInfo instance
 }}}

 I have read the notification about not reporting bugs with plugins here
 but I have already created a ticket for this issue with the sipe devs
 here:

 https://github.com/tieto/sipe/issues/40

 They say this is an issue they've seen before and it needs to be resolved
 upstream.
