Opera Dragonfly (need updated package?)

bladesonfire · 2008-05-10 18:57:40

Hi all,

I wanted to test out Opera Dragonfly, which is Opera's version of Firebug. To use Opera Dragonfly, Opera 9.50 beta 2 is required, but I think a later build is also required, because I have opera-devel build 1929, but the latest UNIX build is 1962. Dragonfly was released on May 6th. How do I request this package upgrade and rely less on Firefox? Thanks.

The best way to tackle is is to update opera-devel package using ABS.

I just happened to need opera 9.50 beta 2 so I modified a little the PKGBUILD and voila:

# Custom opera beta PKGBUILD by Dheart.

build() {
if [ "$CARCH" = "x86_64" ]; then
       cd ${startdir}/src/opera-9.50b-20080422.6-shared-qt.x86_64-1933
       sed 's|/usr/X11R6/lib/mozilla/plugins=1|/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins=1|' -i usr/share/opera/ini/pluginpath.ini || return 1
  else cd ${startdir}/src/opera-9.50-20080422.6-shared-qt.i386-1933

   ./install.sh DESTDIR=${startdir}/pkg
   install -D -m 644 ${startdir}/src/opera.desktop ${startdir}/pkg/usr/share/applications/opera.desktop

   install -D -m 644 ${startdir}/src/opera_logo48.png ${startdir}/pkg/usr/share/opera/images/opera_48x48.png
}

Note: Since I was lazy the x86-64 part probably wouldn't build because the address of the sources has changed and I didn't bother to search it.

Also you'll need the .desktop file and the logo. Place them in the build dir.

P.P preview doesn't work with the new opera...

Thanks to both of you Installed ABS, copied the opera-devel folder, modified the PKGBUILD, and here I am running Dragonfly. Rock on!

Dheart, I noticed you weren't using the latest beta, so here's my PKGBUILD if anyone wants the latest (fixed "development" spelling and updated 32-bit and 64-bit packages):

Strange... I had just browsed through opera's snapshop site and that was the beta it gave me... nvm... I don't intent to rebuild since I'm far too lazy
