 Good catch - sorry for the inconvenience!  What you can do as a
workaround: First upgrade irssi-plugin-otr and then install irssi.  Or
somehow force-install it with dpkg.  I'll roll out a -2, and I'm sorry
that I missed that part.  The helpfile will move over to the
irssi-plugin-otr package.

 Enjoy,
Rhonda
