Manually adding the Opera APT repository

The following is almost certainly not needed. If you install an Opera .deb package, our repository is automatically configured for updates.

If you nonetheless want to add the repository prior to installing Opera, please issue the following:

wget -qO- https://deb.opera.com/archive.key | gpg --dearmor | sudo dd of=/usr/share/keyrings/opera-browser.gpg
echo "deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/opera-browser.gpg] https://deb.opera.com/opera-stable/ stable non-free" | sudo dd of=/etc/apt/sources.list.d/opera-archive.list

Note: Do not change the entry in the first line from "stable" even if you use testing or unstable versions of your distro, otherwise you may receive the warning "W: Conflicting distribution: deb.opera.com" on issuing apt-get update.

Installing Opera

Once the repository is added you can install Opera stable by issuing the following:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install opera-stable

Note: You may be asked about adding the Opera repository to receive updates. However, if you have followed the above instructions, you can answer no.
