<![CDATA[Chrome web store extensions are not working in Opera]]>Hello Opera Team

To two previous versions of Opera I use the extension "Download Chrome Extension". With it I can download extensions from the chrome web store, however, it is giving error and the browser closes and does not install any extension of the store "chrome web store". I have completely removed the browser and deleted all the folders and even then the following error message appears, as below.

Download Chrome Extension
Unable to download the package from the network error.
Check you internet connection and try again.

Obs. Information for the FIM that my connection is normal.

Linux version I am using:

Version: 48.0.2685.35 - Opera is updated
Refresh stream: Stable
System: Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS (x86_64; Unity)

If you can help me in this matter I am grateful!

Yes, in Windows it is working normally. The problem so far is specific to Linux, where other people have also complained about the same situation, as can be seen here. (https://github.com/operasoftware/chrome-webstore-extension/issues) Apparently it seems to be the extension "Download Chrome Extension" after version 2.3.0 and 2.4.0. I ran several tests and apparently it's the extension.

As an indication, I circumvented this with the CRX "Extension source viewer" and I was able to install the Chrome Web Store extensions normally.

I was able to download the Chrome extension Cybrhome New Tab Page. However, only the options page installed instead of the full extension. Not sure how to resolve this.

I've tried the above tips, the extension is installed, but it does not work.
Besides this problem, the last two versions of Opera here for me are very unstable. I think we will have to wait for some solution from the developers.

Thank you in advance for your attention.
