I am using Centos 6.8, which Opera 12 works fine. But when I tried to install Opera 42 by the rpm package. It gave a lot of error below:

rpm -ivh opera.rpm
warning: opera.rpm: Header V4 RSA/SHA512 Signature, key ID f6d61d45: NOKEY
error: Failed dependencies:
libnotify.so.4()(64bit) is needed by opera-stable-42.0.2393.517-0.x86_64
libstdc++.so.6(CXXABI_1.3.5)(64bit) is needed by opera-stable-42.0.2393.517-0.x86_64

I tried to install libstdc++.i686 but it still gave me the same error.

Please suggest.

The .i686 lib would be 32-bit and not useful to a 64-bit program. Either install the 32-bit version of Opera (available here - it's the .i386.rpm file) or - if you have a 64-bit system - install the required 64-bit versions of the libraries.

install the required 64-bit versions of the libraries.

How? Sorry for bothering, I am new to Linux. I have to use this linux because it is required by my office.

What does your current browser say for user agent? What does your package manager say the version of the kernel is? My guess is you have a 32-bit system (the kernel says .i686 or similar, not .x86_64) and would have to use the 32-bit version of Opera.

I have CentOS 6.8 64 bit system. The kernel is 2.6.32-642.13.1.el6.x86_64.

I cannot find libnotify.so.4 for CentOS 6 anywhere. They have it for CentOS 7 but not for the 6 version. What dependency should I install ?

I tried:
yum whatprovides libnotify.so.4

It returned "No matches found"
