What is the best (read cleanest) way to remove this version and install linux-opera-7? I'm asking because I had some issues with uninstalling one version of an app and reinstalling a later version in the past.., Particularly where it comes to shared dependencies (operamotif) et al. Can I take it for granted that where you mentioned on freebsdforums (http://www.bsdforums.org/forums/showthread.php?s=9b43787a1839c584946536fd1f20f2f3&threadid=8714) that the plugins "just worked" for you.., this was indeed referring to Macromedia Flash (which version, by the way?) and Acrobat Reader?
