Hightlights:
* User interface redesigned
* Added Chat client
* Added RSS newsfeeds
* Fast full-text indexing of e-mail messages
* Support for spell check (via aspell)
* Graphical smileys in chat and e-mail
Note: on upgrade, e-mail from previous Opera versions will be
reindexed for faster searching and sorting. The new e-mail format
is not backward compatible, so earlier versions of Opera
won't be able to read the mail once this happens.

Fixes pkg/23437 by Hideyuki KURASHINA
(used to run the netscape plugins) has the motif library it depends on; while
opera-plugins takes care of this, I prefer direct depend in opera7 package
this adresses PR pkg/21734 by Kai Puolamaki
bump all dependancies to SuSE pkgs >= 7.3, since this is what opera7 was
tested against; the >= 6.[34] could be put back if someone confirms
opera7 actually works correctly with SuSE 6.3, 6.4 libraries
