Currently opera's installer runs a md5check that always fails because ebuild modifies a file, this is why following einfo is being used: einfo "It is safe to ignore warnings about failed checksums" The attached patch prevents installer from running this unneded md5check, then, this einfo can be dropped Reproducible: Always
Created attachment 164808 [details, diff] opera-9.51-no_md5check.patch It also works fine with opera-9.52
Sorry, I simply have to vote NO on this one. Fixing install.sh will always be messy, and fixing trivial issues like this one (heck, we KNOW we changed the file, don't we? :) isn't going to improve maintenance in the long run. Let's focus on the other install.sh bugs in order to 1) improve maintenance by applying minimal patching and 2) fix real bugs.
Are you sure that this will change a lot with new opera releases? Patch simply removes a line (sed could be used also for this if you prefer...)
