Hi.

I try now your script but looks like somethink is broken.

[x@localhost rpm-opera]$ ./rpm4opera --developer

Something went wrong with packaging.

Any solution or fix? :)

To correct this problem please add :
/usr/share/mime/packages/%{appname}.xml in %file section of the script , before EOF

or more correctly %{_datadir}/mime/packages/%{name}.xml

As you have no doubt realised, this script is not maintained. I left Opera last year when the Opera desktop team in Oslo was shut down (development continues primarily with a team in Poland). Since I left all my Opera scripts are unmaintained and deprecated. If they work they work, if they don't they don't.
