0.9.0 is still the standard download in repository.

If I hide inappropriate cleaning options then Opera does not even appear as an option, although it is my standard browser.

The .opera/cache folder consists of a lot of folders called g0001, g0002 etc.

Those are normally empty which is not the case for Windows XP or 7.

All the temp files are actually in Ubuntus .opera/cache/sesn folder. In my case there was about 500 megabytes. I deleted them using the shred files menu item.

Thoughts and comments welcome.

Cheers,

Guillaume

It's better to ask this in the forum as a new topic than on a release page as a comment.

In any case, first, make sure you are not running BleachBit as administrator (root). Second, make sure you have a file called opera.xml somewhere in /usr (with a folder name also containing 'bleachbit').
