wxMupen64Plus Segfaults

For whatever reason, wxMupen64Plus tries to use /usr/lib as my plugin director and complains about not finding any. Now, when I try to edit this in the GUI, trying to open the Plugins menu causes the program to segfault and crash without any useful terminal output.

Loading plugins from /usr/lib/ 
     GFX <mupen64plus-video-rice.so> : /!\ Could not load 
     Audio <mupen64plus-audio-sdl.so> : /!\ Could not load 
     Input <mupen64plus-input-sdl.so> : /!\ Could not load
     RSP <mupen64plus-rsp-hle.so> : /!\ Could not load

[Config] Ignoring config section CoreEvents 
[Config] Ignoring config section UI-Console 
[1] 21712 segmentation fault wxmupen64plus

Changing the path in "/.config/mupen64plus/mupen64plus.cfg" does nothing. I tried modifying the PKGBUILD to set the plugin directory for waf to use but it complained about "--pluginsdir" being a bad flag.

Obviously the plugins path is not correct, but here is how I configured my wxMupen64Plus under Arch x86_64 and succeeded. PluginDir is the only line what is needed to modify in .cfg file.

Hopefully this helps.

File path: ~/.config/mupen64plus/mupen64plus.cfg

[UI-wx]

# Directory in which to search for plugins
PluginDir = "/usr/lib/mupen64plus"
# Filename of video plugin
VideoPlugin = "mupen64plus-video-rice.so"
# Filename of audio plugin
AudioPlugin = "mupen64plus-audio-sdl.so"
# Filename of input plugin
InputPlugin = "mupen64plus-input-sdl.so"
# Filename of RSP plugin
RspPlugin = "mupen64plus-rsp-hle.so"
# Where to search for games
GamesPath = "/home/vnbovnd/Games/emu/n64"
# Whether to run game in main frame or in external frame. Running in external frame works better on Linux.
VideoExtension = "external"
