It is supposed to complain. We don't have the source code to Opera; we
can't recompile it and tell it to stop looking for those libraries.
Opera is built to work with either GTK or KDE libs and is dynamically
linked against both. As long as you provide GTK or KDE it will run just
fine. There probably isn't any reasonable way to teach pkg_libchk how to
understand this.
