About the above packages

The opera desktop team have been releasing weekly builds of the upcoming recently released version 9.0.

I have been creating opera slackware packages for each one of these releases for my own personal use, and considering the fact that 9.0-final has been released, I thought that might as well share the love and upload my packages for my fellow slackers to use.

The current stable release is available for download, but I will also provide a package of the latest beta/nightly/weekly release. My own personal experience is that the beta builds are more often than not stable enough to use in a production environment, although if in doubt, download the latest stable version.

Note: These packages use shared qt libraries, meaning that you will at the very least require a basic KDE installation. As Slackware comes default with KDE installed, this should not be a problem, and I believe that if you are clever enough to engineer a slackware installation without kdelibs installed, I think you should be smart enough to create your own opera package anyway. If there is enough interest, however, I might provide static-qt opera slackware packages if requested.
