I was recently attempting to port some older Selenium tests to a new Linux machine and found that I did not have the Opera browser installed. Thus, I submit the following.
There are several ways to go about doing this, depending upon your skills.
1. Most simple IMHO…
- Add the path to the application file, then install, updates will come as they are released.
sudo vi /etc/apt/sources.list
- Add the following line to the file.
deb http://deb.opera.com/opera/ stable non-free
- Update the software registry:
sudo apt-get update
- Install:
sudo apt-get install opera
2. Another method, with the same results:
sudo sh -c ‘echo “deb http://deb.opera.com/opera/ stable non-free” >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/opera.list’
sudo sh -c ‘wget -O – http://deb.opera.com/archive.key | apt-key add -’
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install opera
3. Additionally, you can simply download the files from the Opera website and uncompress wherever desired on your drive.
