Attached patch patch (obsolete) — Splinter Review

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; FreeBSD amd64; rv:99.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/99.0

Steps to reproduce:

Tried using OTR functionality on the FreeBSD build.

Actual results:

The OTR library cannot be loaded because loading libc as a prerequisite fails due to a false assumption about the nature of FreeBSD's libc.so (it's a linker script).
