There appears to be a fix documented upstream: https://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/15517 "When building with SASL support, the IRC plugin needs to link against libsasl2, otherwise it will fail to load with the following error: (03:20:54) plugins: probing /usr/lib/purple-2/libirc.so (03:20:54) plugins: /usr/lib/purple-2/libirc.so is not loadable: undefined symbol: sasl_client_step This is a new issue in Pidgin 2.10.7 since it's the first release that adds SASL support for IRC (https://hg.pidgin.im/pidgin/main/rev/bbd52f93184e)."
