- 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!

security fixes:
Severity: Moderate/high
========================
- Tightened origin check for frames. A side effect of this is that
documents not passing the origin check will open in a new page.
- Fixed issue reported by Marc Schonefeld: intrusive JavaScript or
Java applet could exploit Sun Java vulnerability to retrieve
logged-in user's username and install directory.
- Fixed LiveConnect class access security issue reported by Jouko
Pynnonen.
- Fixed Secunia issue SA12981, reported by Andreas Sandblad: periods
in the file name and non-breaking spaces in content-type header type
could obscure the file type.
- Fixed Secunia issue SA13253: "hi-jacking" a named browser window.
- Improved support for the "must-revalidate" cache directive.

www/opera:
- The maintainer has asked me to babysitting this while he's away for
vacation. He is gone for about five weeks started last Thursday.
- Some tweak with the plugins, I have added jdk13 and jdk14 support
but I have no idea if they will work since I don't have any FreeBSD
4.x to test. Please let me know if there has any issue.
- Does the spellcheck feature works in FreeBSD 4.x? Please, contract
me on this one too. If it works, then I will need to add a dependency
of aspell with a new WITHOUT_ASPELL knob.
- See the changelog for detail:
http://www.opera.com/freebsd/changelogs/753/
www/linux-opera:
- I didn't update it to 7.52, because it still doesn't fix the security
and the plugins was broke. The 7.53 has solved all of this to allow
me to update it.
- Please read in pkg-message about the changes of search.ini if you
have a custom of it. You will have to edit it or it will not work.
- See the changelog for detail:
7.52 = http://www.opera.com/linux/changelogs/752/
7.53 = http://www.opera.com/linux/changelogs/753/
- Use DOCSDIR.
- Rename everything from opera to linux-opera, no longer in conflict
with www/opera.
- Handle the dependenies better for linux_base(8).
- Handle the better check if GNOME and KDE exist.
- Now, it will auto find flash plug-in by automatic without have to
copy in plugins directory by manual. Finally got it works, really!
