[PATCH] Fix for double initialization of silc plugin in irssi (resulting in duplication of "action" messsages)

[Skywing]

Ah!  That makes much more sense :)  Thanks for the expanded explanation.  Verified that this is indeed what is happening on my system (bogus symlink is there between libfe_silc.so ->libfe_common_silc.so).

Hi,

looking at the 1.1.4 tarball, it's not fixed :(. But it should be...

The problem is that the apps/irssi/src/fe-common/silc/Makefile.am at the
bottom creates a link from fe_common_silc.so to fe_silc.so. Therefore,
irssi loads the fe module twice, and all messages are printed twice etc.

This fix is required for some versions of irssi which would only look
for fe_silc.so.

regards
