If you want to use pidgin with the otr plugin, you will find out, that installing the plugin with
nix-env -iA nixos.pidginotr
does not work. The plugin doesn't appear in the plugin list.
To use it, you need to make a packageOverride.
Put this into ~/.config/nixpkgs/config.nix.
{
packageOverrides = pkgs: rec {
pidgin-with-plugins = pkgs.pidgin-with-plugins.override {
plugins = [ pkgs.pidginotr ];};
};
}
Then you can install pidgin with
nix-env -iA nixos.pidgin-with-plugins. This install will then include pidginotr.
