LibreCAD is missing default/built-in plugins

[xyzz]

System

• xuname:
  Void 5.12.19_1 x86_64 AuthenticAMD uptodate hold rrrrmdFFFFFFFF
• package:
  affected package(s) including the version: LibreCAD-2.1.3_3

Expected behavior

LibreCAD has several default plugins documented in https://librecad.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ref/menu.html#plugins - these should be accessible via the "Plugins" menu. To confirm this, I've installed LibreCAD 2.1.3 on windows using their official installer and the following plugins are present:

Actual behavior

After installing LibreCAD from Void Linux repos, the "Plugins" menu is empty (this is after trying to click on the menu):

Steps to reproduce the behavior

1. Install and launch LibreCAD
2. Click on "Plugins" in the menu bar

Looks like the Debian package copies two things:

1. unix/librecad to /usr/bin
2. unix/resources/plugins/* to /usr/lib/librecad

The Void template only does the first.

I think the template should contain something like:

# install plugins
for plugin in plugins; do
    vcopy unix/resources/${plugin} usr/lib/librecad/
done

though I can't test because harfbuzz build is failing for me.

It was an accidental push, i believe.

It was.

Debian also symlinks the plugins to usr/share. I still need to figure out how to change the load path. I'll be back at it tonight.
