Synopsis

The remote openSUSE host is missing a security update.

Description

This updates irc-otr to version 1.0.2 and fixes the following issues :

 - Only the first line of messages transmitted via OTR sessions was a PRIVMSG and additional data was sent as a raw command to the IRC server (boo#1016942).

 - Detect the libotr-emitted HTML-formatted init string and replace it with a description customized for IRC and irssi-otr.

Solution

Update the affected irc-otr packages.
