Hi Jake, I'm an avid opera-developer user, and I have my own sfs build script for it. I've learned a few things while building the sfs of now more than 30 opera-developer versions. Here's what I do to prepare the build folder from the unpacked .deb package folder:

Code: Select all

# Replace "-developer" with "-stable" or "" appropriately for Opera stable below.

# [2] Musts
Press button 'Terminal' and type:
  chown root.root usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/opera-developer/opera_sandbox
  chmod 4755 usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/opera-developer/opera_sandbox
# This worked up to Opera Developer 46.0.2556 - the last version to run with GTK-2.
# ln -sfT libnotify.so usr/lib64/libnotify.so.4

# More recent opera (chromium) builds need:
#  install pkg gtk3-3.18.7-x86_64-1
#  install pkg libnotify-0.7.7-x86_64-1

# [3] Video Codecs
Download the opera-developer-ffmpeg-codecs package from the Herecura repo:
 64-bit https://repo.herecura.eu/herecura/x86_64/

Press button 'Terminal' and type:
  mkdir usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/opera-developer/lib_extra
  rox usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/opera-developer/lib_extra
 Extract libffmpeg.so from the herecura package to this subfolder.
 Test page: http://cnn.com/video

# [5] Check post-install script:
  defaulttexteditor ./postinst

# [6] **REMEMBER** to
: rm top-level .deb control files

All files in your sfs belong to user spot instead of root. Did you package your sfs from inside the Downloads folder?

Hi step, thanks for the info. Your instructions only set 'opera_sandbox' as root, could you clarify if should be the case for all files in the sfs?

Posted: **Thu 12 Oct 2017, 18:36**

root should own all the files.

If you downloaded the .deb and unpacked it in a directory _outside_ the Downloads folder root should automatically be the owner of all files. You want this.

If instead you unpacked it inside the Downloads folder spot is the owner. (This is a "magic" property of the Fatdog64 Downloads folder.)

Thanks step. I understand now. I've uploaded a new SFS and linked to it in my previous post. I've looked at the BETA and DEV versions of Opera, but did not have a good experience with them due to bugs.

Thanks for the new opera-stable SFS! If you ever get a hitch to try opera-dev again I'll be around with my SFS.

A right click package to convert various audio format files such as
wav and mp3. It's very small because it uses ffmpeg and lame which are built-in.

I found an alternate way to open and view a fatdog package

An online site..
http://online.b1.org/online

Open the package with this site and it will first convert it to tar file.
Then open the tar file and the original files will be available.
