On tumbleweed and leap 42.2 can’t install opera 12.16 from here: https://ftp.opera.com/pub/opera/linux/1216/
This opera installs fine only on 13.1, 13.2
I did not guru user.
i put command zypper in opera-12.16-1860.i386.rpm on tumbleweed and there is an error that one of the packages is missing and no repository provides it

Copy/paste from your terminal the complete thing: prompt, command, output, prompt. Pate it between CODE tags in your post. You get the CODE tags by clicking on the # button in the tool bar of the post editor.
Only then we will see exactly what you saw. And only so others can come to their own conclusions.
Are you sure you want to install a web browser version that’s 4 years old? That’s a big security risk.
Why don’t you just install the latest opera that’s included in the distribution?
If you don’t like the new/current opera browser, then maybe have a look at Vivaldi which is developed by the original Opera developers.

A openSUSE package is available on Packman.
gstreamer-0_10 has been dropped because it is old, outdated, and unmaintained (upstream).
It should still be available on Packman though.
Hi
Or look at installing otter-browser…
In that browser have a lot of saved links, and it have much convenient system for storing links.
So i had installed them by ignoring dependencies, and it working fine.
It’s still old and outdated, and therefore a security risk.
You should be able to import your saved links to other browsers somehow. I know I did import them without problems into Konqueror years ago… KDE’s keditbookmarks does offer an option to import Opera bookmarks.
No idea what you mean with “convenient system for storing links”, but other browsers may offer similar things. (as I said, Vivaldi is written by the same people that created Opera 12.16, unlike newer Opera versions)
So i had installed them by ignoring dependencies, and it working fine.
I don’t know for what it uses gstreamer-0_10 exactly (maybe HTML5 videos?), but those functions won’t work and may even cause it to crash.
I had a look, and they removed gstreamer-0_10 from Packman too (for Tumbleweed, it is still available for Leap 42.2).
It is still available in the multimedia:libs repo on OBS though (without support for restricted codecs of course):
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/multimedia:/libs/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/
But if you add this repo, you probably should give it a lower priority than Packman, or multimedia packages from there will be replaced by crippled versions from multimedia:libs…
most modern browsers can import opera bookmarks
Vivaldi nativly supports Opera 12-14 or you can export your bookmarks as a html file and import them with your new browser
you really should move to a new browser both Opera and Vivaldi use Chromium’s blink engine so a choice between those 3 is what suits your needs Firefox is a good choice too
Just to add:
KDE’s keditbookmarks does also offer exporting the bookmarks (e.g. as a simple html file), and it can import Opera’s bookmarks as mentioned. So you could use that too to “convert” the bookmarks if necessary.
It’s a very small package and you probably have it installed already anyway if you use a KDE desktop…
I’ve never tried it
I’ve been using Firefox since mozilla killed off the now resurrected SeaMonkey
and with Firefox sync (I know it’s a security hole) I can have all my bookmarks and addons thru out different devices (Linux Windows Android) I just logon to sync and all my bookmarks are there
