irssi 1.2 includes otr so should probably replace irssi-otr

severity should be 'high'

irssi 1.2 as a replacement seems to be best solution.
but then the PKGBUILD should include '--with-otr' to make sure it's compiled

can confirm that the above compile flag solves the issue, removing the requirement for irssi-otr
