Thanks for all those who provided advise for the rpm package. I am already running that, but as mentioned, it has a video player problem with major sites like youtibe and facebook, and I have to mnually update libraries to fix it everytime after an update. The snap version fixed that requirement, but now since it seems to be doing something wierd with debian libraries, I am back on the RPM verion with that cumbersome condition. Opera reported way back, they cannot fix it because of some mp3 or video encoders that they are not allowed to use. to due copyight or propriety licensing or somethig ( but strangely in snap they seem to overcome that)... so we either revert to firefox in some cases like I do, or continue to fix the libraries manually. I like Opera for some features, but it has it quirks.
