Install Opera on Debian

As much knowledge as I have I can tell you that you can install Opera on Debian in three ways.

1. The First way is by using .deb package
2. The Second way is by using .tar.gz package
3. The third way is by using Synaptic Package Manager

I had already tried these ways and I got very error when I tried to install opera via second way as it was not have Libraries. So I tried to install opera by first way and it was installed perfectly just by using this code: dpkg -i opera*.deb

Now when you try to install via third way you will have to add a new additional storage area. For this you will have to edit the sources file in /etc/apt directory just by adding deb Index of /opera

After doing that you will have to open Synaptic Package Manager and there you will have to click on Reload. You can also use the search option which is available over there to search for the specific opera package. Now after doing that you will just have to click on install option and opera will be installed.
