When releasing Adblock Plus 3.8 we ran into an issue with the Opera Addons website that prevented us from making the new version available on Opera (core#132). This issue has been resolved now, and we finally were able to deliver the update on Opera as Adblock Plus 3.8.1. Other than a minor change required for submission on Opera Addons this build is identical to what has been released as Adblock Plus 3.8 for other browsers.
