Quick Opera install in Linux

In my opinion Opera is a very light weight, no-nonsense software. While opinions may vary, here is a easy way to install Opera in your Ubuntu/ Debian system.

Open to edit the apt sources.list file
sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
add the opera repo in a new line
deb http://deb.opera.com/opera/ stable non-free
Add the Opera GPG key with the command (recommended)
wget -O - http://deb.opera.com/archive.key | sudo apt-key add -
If you get authentication warnings, you may try (optional)
sudo apt-get install debian-archive-keyring
Run aptitude update
sudo apt-get update
Finally install Opera browser
sudo apt-get install opera
