A bit late but I thought it worth mentioning you don't even have to
install Opera 11, just untar it and run in situ. I wrote a little
script to cd to the highest-versioned dir matching ~/apps/opera-* and
run the included script. I much prefer that to a package manager
keeping track of where everything is.

I don't know about anyone else here but I personally have a lot more
respect for a closed-source project rolling its own widget set than
for certain FOSS projects out there.
