mga7, x86_64
Installed irssi and irssi-perl, checked it out then updated it.
Started irssi again in the terminal, signed in to #mageia-meeting, posted a greeting then used /help to look at the commands available and tried out a few.  All working as expected.

mga6, x86_64

SASL not configured so immune to the bug.
Login in a terminal using the irssi command and the existing .irssi/config file.
Joined the #mageia-meeting channel at Freenode.  Tried out /help and a few of the commands.

No problems; /part, /quit.
