Sign up to join this communityI don't know if you still need it but I found a solution to install opera in Ubuntu 11.10 (not beta version) using apt-get at liberiangeek.net
by some guy named Richard(I think).
To get started, press Ctrl – Alt – T on your keyboard to open Terminal. When it opens, run the commands below to add Opera’s public key.
sudo sh -c 'wget -O - http://deb.opera.com/archive.key | apt-key add -'
After adding the key, run the command below to add Opera repository
sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list.d/opera.list
Next, copy the past the line below into the file and save it.
deb http://deb.opera.com/opera/ stable non-free
After that run the commands below to update your system.
sudo apt-get update
Finally, run the commands below to install Opera
sudo apt-get install opera
Enjoy
You can access the tutorial by this link also.
You should download gdebi from the software centre or usesudo apt-get install gdebi
and open the .deb file with gdebi
Open a terminal and navigate to the location where you saved the DEB file. Run the following command, replacing [pkg]
with the filename of the DEB package you downloaded:
sudo dpkg -i [pkg]
Here is why wont install and the fix...
