      @Opera Dev: Please update the SourcesList file (e.g. opera-stable.list) in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ according to the latest Debian specifications. Currently the following notice appears after an Opera update:

      Notice: Some sources can be modernized. Run 'apt modernize-sources' to do so.
      

      After apt apt modernize-sources the compliant file opera-stable.sources is created with a warning:

      Modernizing /etc/apt/sources.list.d/opera-stable.list...
      - Writing /etc/apt/sources.list.d/opera-stable.sources
      Warnung: Could not determine Signed-By for URIs: https://deb.opera.com/opera-stable/, Suites: stable
      

      I am modifying opera-stable.sources with the following correct opera-stable.sources file in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/:

      Types: deb
      URIs: https://deb.opera.com/opera-stable/
      Suites: stable
      Components: non-free
      Architectures: amd64
      Signed-By: /usr/share/keyrings/opera-browser.gpg
      

      However, after the next Opera update, a non-compliant opera-stable.list is created again, and the following warnings appear because there are now 2 SourcesList files:

      Warning: Target Packages (non-free/binary-amd64/Packages) is configured multiple times in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/opera-stable.list:4 and /etc/apt/sources.list.d/opera-stable.sources:1

      Warning: Target Translations (non-free/i18n/Translation-en) is configured multiple times in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/opera-stable.list:4 and /etc/apt/sources.list.d/opera-stable.sources:1

      I currently have to delete the opera-stable.list file after every Opera update.
