10.10: Install Opera

Asked by peter

Hi

I would install Opera and the installation process told me the following:

Same version is available in a software channel
You are recommended to install the software from the channel instead.

How can I connect the software channel and which software channel is meant? Thanks a lot.
Peter

Have you added the Opera repository to your sources.list?

Applications > Accessories > Terminal

gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list

At the end of that file, paste this line (if not already done that).

deb http://deb.opera.com/opera/ stable non-free

Save and close and from Terminal,

wget -qO - http://deb.opera.com/archive.key | sudo apt-key add -

Then Applications > Software Center and search Opera. Or Terminal and,

sudo apt-get install opera
