[vorbis] Cannot activate Ogg plugin in XMMS

        My machine is running RedHat Linux 7.3, and I believe it came with 
vorbis 1.0rc3 by default.  To my knowledge, I upgraded all libraries, 
documentation, and binaries with 1.0 versions.  it placed everything in 
/usr/local whereas the old stuff was in /usr, so I manually deleted the 
old stuff from /usr.
        When I run 'oggenc', it does say: "OggEnc v1.0 (libvorbis 1.0)" which 
leads me to believe that everything was upgraded properly.  Then I 
deleted the old decoder from the XMMS Input plugins directory, even 
though I knew it would play 1.0 files.  However, after placing the new 
XMMS plugin files into the proper directory and restarting XMMS, it can 
no longer handle Ogg Vorbis files, and the Preferences' "Input plugins" 
section no longer has a Ogg entry.

[pwhite at pwhite Input]$ pwd
/usr/lib/xmms/Input
[pwhite at pwhite Input]$ ls -l

If anyone has any ideas, I'd love to hear them.  Thank you.
