Kopete - unable to create chat window

[den_RDC]

When trying to open a chat window in Kopete (using only the MSN plugin & autoreplace, no others loaded), i get the following errorbox : An error has occurred while creating a new chat window. The chat window has not been created. Incoming messages are also discarded.

console output:
libkopete: WARNING: [KopetePlugin* KopetePluginManager::loadPluginInternal(const QString&)] Unable to find a plugin named 'kopete_chatwindow'!
In contrast to this message, the plugin is available on disk, in the same folder as the autoreplace plugin wich does seem to load without problems.
/usr/kde/3.2/lib/kde3/kopete_chatwindow.la
/usr/kde/3.2/lib/kde3/kopete_chatwindow.so

I think this happened when updating from 3.2 to 3.2.1 ... but as i rarely initiate a chat session (and kopete just prints that errormsg to stdout, and drops all incoming chat requests without a buzz) i am not 100% sure about this

Try re-emergeing kopete? As a Guru you've probably done it already, but hey...
