Yeah on bigger servers the plugin is really annoying because you have to click like 100 messages away.

Simple hacky solution how to disable the annoying plugin:
Xchat will stop loading the plugin and you can finally use your phone again without tipping hundreds of PMs away.
cd /usr/lib/xchat/plugins/
mv xchat_notify.so xchat_notify.so.bak

(Sorry for hijacking the thread, but this thread is listed as the project's bugtracker)
I was just wondering what the current problems are with using Python, whether there are any plans to implement the XChat Python plugin for the N900 any time soon, or whether anyone has any alternative suggestions for getting my N900 to read me what's happening on IRC

1) Disabled Python support (XChat did not compile with it on SB2).

It's a one line change in debian/rules -- surely it's not hard to add "--enable-python" before running dpkg-buildpackage to prepare a source package?

Well, there is another little wart that comes with it: if XChat is compiled with Python support and there is no Python installed, XChat prints weird error messages on startup (about shared libraries not being found). Given that, the SB2 incompatibility, and the fact that nobody seems to need it (this is the first request for Python in months, and only because there is some obscure plugin that uses it), I simply do not want to mess with Python support.
The only reason that people may see them is if they don't have (lib)Python installed, and that's possible because I stopped libpython from being added to XChat's dependencies automatically - I figure noone wants it installed automatically if they have no need for it.
Of course, the tradeoff, as you know, is the error messages. I can shrug them off but I can see how they may confuse new users...
True, I have no need for the plugin either, but "every little helps"... =)
Isn't there a way to completely remove this plugin/prevent it from being loaded thru some configuration file?
