I wonder if there is a permalink to the latest stable version; it would be very useful to use it in a bash installation script.

@gidici61 I think you should address to the customer service.

You can parse https://ftp.opera.com/pub/opera/desktop/ for latest version

@styen Thanks, but what I'm looking for is a permalink to be used in a shell script like this:

wget --no-verbose https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb

@gidici61 parse list to get versions list, sort by version number, get latest version and then download it

LATEST_VERSION=`wget -q4O - https://ftp.opera.com/pub/opera/desktop/ | grep -Po 'href="\K.*?(?=/")' | sort -V | tail -n1`
wget "https://ftp.opera.com/pub/opera/desktop/${LATEST_VERSION}/linux/opera-stable_${LATEST_VERSION}_amd64.deb"

@styen said in Is there a permalink to the latest stable version?:

LATEST_VERSION=wget -q4O - https://ftp.opera.com/pub/opera/desktop/ | grep -Po 'href="\K.*?(?=/")' | sort -V | tail -n1

It works; I would have preferred to find a direct link, however these commands are perfect. Thank you.

@gidici61 Did you check https://www.opera.com/download?

@leocg Yes, I checked, but I couldn't find what I'm looking for; I'm waiting for a response from the Opera servicedesk. The best solution so far is the one suggested by styen.

@gidici61 https://download.opera.com/download/get/?partner=www&opsys=Linux&package=RPM and https://download.opera.com/download/get/?partner=www&opsys=Linux don't work?

@leocg It does work, but if I use a web browser; doesn't work if I type

wget "https://download.opera.com/download/get/?partner=www&opsys=Linux"

in a terminal. The same with "curl -L".
There is no ".deb" string inside the downloaded file.
