both current (fc4) and future linux (f8) distributions at one
ports tree.
The patch contains full changes to ports/Mk files and all ports involved.
But only infrastructure is changed. The resulting packages are the same as
before. Hence no need to bump PORTREVISIONs.
The idea was taken from bsd.gnome.mk and others.
More than 130 ports are switched to follow a new linux infrastructure
introduced by changes to bsd.port.mk, bsd.linux-rpm.mk and a new
bsd.linux-apps.mk.
Thanks for all who was involved and helped me with this work.
And help from Alexander Leidinger was incredible.
Other changes are coming. Stay tuned!

kern.ipc.shm_allow_removed if it is disable then set OPERA_NUM_XSHM to
0 to disable the shared memory support or it will causing Opera to halt
or/and give strange behavior. Bump the PORTREVISION.
Enable the shm_allow_removed is supposed to be make Opera runs faster with
the shared memory enable. I personal couldn't tell any difference on the
my fast machine by on my own eyes.

The most important part in this release is added a new feature, fraud
protection. It is a phishing filter and keep in mind that it is not enable by
default. To enable it, go to Tools > Preferences > Advanced > Security and
check the "Enable Fraud Protection". I am using it right now and it doesn't
affect any speed. To learn more about fraud protection, visit here:

- Change the prefix from X11BASE to LOCALBASE, see UPDATING for details.
- Now it installs only one *.desktop for more general desktop such as xfce and
etc rather than just limit to GNOME/KDE.

- Add ${LOCALBASE,X11BASE}/lib/browser_linux_plugins, so now you can run
'acroread --install-plugin' and restart browser to have acroread7 plugins.
- Add FreeBSD mail archives in the search, using http://freebsd.rambler.ru/ .
- Clean a bit in search.ini, now the combo box of search looks a bit prettier
by have BSD stuff in a group (seperate bar). Also, make the key works in the
address bar like 'm foobar' to search in http://freebsd.rambler.ru/.
- Update pkg-descr, it's not 7.x anymore. [1]
Opera team has done a nice of job. It is more BSD/Linux friendly and
desktop friendly such as support GNOME if you are using it. For example,
it finally will using gnome-open instead kfmclient. However, it no longer
depend on OpenMotif (woohoo!). [...see changelog above for more...] Kudos!
