all this talk of opera got me interested so I thought I would go ahead
and install it.

a "make install" of /usr/ports/www/linux-opera seemed to work fine.  I

[ dfinn @ stewie : ~] : linux-opera 
opera: Could not initialize spell checker interface. File not found or
could not be opened (-7)
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
