I recently updated an older notebook in dual boot with Windows from 8.04 to 10.10. I kept /home which was on an older partition and reformatted / to ext4. So far so good, everything is perfect, except that I cannot install Opera. I installed the repository according to the community wiki but it does not seem to work. I could download the .deb and install it manually, but I cannot understand what is wrong with the repository - it works on my other computers.
