Yes, opera.com is rolling out releases fairly quickly these days, & www/opera-devel doesn't get updated often enough to make much sense. What I do (when I wish to run test versions) is poke my tube machine on over to http://http://www.opera.com/browser/next/ pull down the correct file, then untar it into a directory, copy the profile/ directory over (if needed) & run it from the local users directory. This way we don't have stray files clotting up /usr/local & don't have to rely on the whims of the maintainer to update a rather fast-moving target. -- --
