The static deb version at opera.com (download, other version, linux), 10.1MB, if downloaded as bz2 rather than default format, is .tar.bz2 not deb. (Used to be 'download as tar.gz').

Works with glibc 2.2.5.

I removed the 15MB of non-English locale files and recompressed to 7.5MB
http://keesan.freeshell.org/bl (search on nolocale).

See also operalib.tgz (add to BL2 or BL3 to run Opera 8 or 9) and a list of files needed by BL3 in http://keesan.freeshell.org/blfiles.htm

See also upx package.
upx opera shrinks it from 15 to 6.8MB.
The upx-ed version does not then compress with bzip2.

I will look for BL3.4 loop on an old hard drive.
Not much changed since then. Older BL3 had different wm.
