The opera ebuild includes an opera.desktop file that appears not to be correct for use with Gnome. As a result, Opera does not show up in the Applications/Internet menu in Gnome (although it does with KDE). Attachment with patch to fix this follows. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Install opera 2.Go to gnome Application/Internet menu 3.Opera does not appear FYI, this seems to be a problem with both 7.x and 8.x since they use the same opera.desktop file.

Um, no. It's a Qt application, so the qt entry should stay. Does "Application;Qt;Network;WebBrowser;" work? If not, then it's a Gnome problem.
Yes, just adding 'Application' does the trick. Thanks!
