opera port updated

Today www/opera was finally updated
This version fixes vulnerability in previous version
As funny as it sounds after reading PRs related to Opera today I decided to test 10.61 on my desktop and used installer supplied by Opera

I was wondering why the smurf Opera has USE_FPC=cairo when you select GTK support :) ?
Well I wanted to use QT anyway

you can configure Opera to use whatever toolkit you want
from Operas forum
opera:config#FileSelector|DialogToolkit
0 = autodetect 2 = Gtk 3 = KDE 4 = X11
(Don't worry about the missing '1')

For me X11 toolkit was crashing with no apparent reason

Good luck updating
 
Currently doesn't look like I can select QT anyhow

EDIT:
if you're using opera with GTK, and you're sick of slow slidebar, I suggest switching to X11 toolkit (4).
It looks like opera from ports doesn't crash.... (maybe I was missing some dependencies earlier)

With X11 toolkit, sidebar works Extremely fast, compared to GTK


Also:
May I suggest you this Opera skin:

awesome work
 
latest opera just was looking 4 but:

Code:
$ pkg_add -r opera
Error: Unable to get ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-9-current/Latest/opera.tbz: File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access)
pkg_add: unable to fetch 'ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-9-current/Latest/opera.tbz' by URL
$ su

d# pkg_add -r opera

build from ports, you won't have to compile gazillion apps, and opera itself is binary already...
bty, in make config, I unselected all options.... :)

don't follow u dude...
I mean installing port form ports is as fast as installing package [except building few dependencies]

btw what happens with bsd?
???

i wanna fireshit 4 beta 3 and to 'vary' no 4 bsd! eg http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-beta.html

firefox was never available for download at mozilla.com for FreeBSD
You will have to wait till someone ports it or, you can do it yourself [but that's probably pretty hard]

I tried it (10.6x) like a month ago. I didn't upgrade GTK+ and kept Qt3 (from the older versions). I don't know if that was the cause but, depending on the toolkit I switched to, it kept crashing either when closing it or when getting an open/save dialog box.
IIRC the X11 toolkit's open/save dialog boxes are very minimalistic with no way to browse a directory tree.
I also noticed HTML5 videos (both from Opera's website and YouTube) weren't working at all, so I was fed up and removed it. I'll try it again when I upgrade everything.

I may be wrong, but I vaguely remember there's a "smooth scroll" option. It worked much better when I disabled it.

actually when I downloaded Opera and installed manually. Html5 videos worked :D when I installed port, they seam to not work any more :( [But I don't really care atm]

Not not that.
I mean, when you want to open bookmarks slidebar for example.... with gtk it was slow as hell.
Yes, X11 open/save dialogs are pretty bad.... [worst of this kind]
However how much do you use open/save? I almost never use this.... and since I use console most of time, opening local html files in opere is as easy as$ cd some/path; opera index.php
 
Well my version of Opera 10.60 has been running fine since they day it came out, so I tried the port of 10.61 and everything if fine except it doesn't detect the flash plugin!

I built with ALL select options and it works (FreeBSD 8.0, KDE 4.4.5). I tried HTML5 on youtube and it doesn't works.

Makefile was updated 2 hours ago.... :)
Now there are more options [It's still not available with portsnap, need to wait few hours, or fetch Makefile from CVS]
 
I fetched the new flash plugin port, built it and it's still a no-go. Flash works in Firefox3 and it used to work in previous version of Opera.

flash was working great in 10.10, why it is broken again?:/ i can't understand it

There was an update to the port a few hours ago that should fix this. It's working fine for me now.
 
Yes!! It's working again! Many thanks to opera port maintainers!
And believe me I hate flash x( but so many sites do have their webs 100% flash now, not using it it's like not drinking beer or sth when fairly anybody does ;)
