Enable snaps on Arch Linux and install Opera
Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.
Snaps are discoverable and installable from the Snap Store, an app store with an audience of millions.
Enable snapd
On Arch Linux, snap can be installed from the Arch User Repository (AUR). The manual build process is the Arch-supported install method for AUR packages, and you’ll need the prerequisites installed before you can install any AUR package. You can then install snap with the following:
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/snapd.git cd snapd makepkg -si
Once installed, the systemd unit that manages the main snap communication socket needs to be enabled:
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket
To enable classic snap support, enter the following to create a symbolic link between /var/lib/snapd/snap and /snap :
sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap
Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly.
Install Opera
To install Opera, simply use the following command:
ITnerd

Итак, графическая оболочка у нас уже есть, но прав пока мало. Поэтому установим sudo и делегируем права нашему новому пользователю.
Редактируем конфиг /etc/sudoers, находим в нем строчку root ALL = (ALL) ALL и добавляем еще одну, но вместо root прописываем имя нового пользователя. Сохраняем и reboot.
Теперь можно и интернет посерфить, но не тут то было – браузера в системе по умолчанию нет. Не беда – поставим. Но для начала установим yaourt (Yet AnOther User Repository Tool). В wiki подробно расписано как его установить. Скопирую инструкцию сюда. Сначала ставим пакеты, которые нужны для него:
wget http://aur.archlinux.org/packages/package-query/package-query.tar.gz
tar zxvf package-query.tar.gz
cd package-query
makepkg -si
cd ..
Теперь очередь самого yaourt:
wget http://aur.archlinux.org/packages/yaourt/yaourt.tar.gz
tar zxvf yaourt.tar.gz
cd yaourt
makepkg -si
cd ..
Кроме того нужно будет установить qt. Opera использует его в своем интерфейсе.
Теперь очередь за самой Opera:
Тут же выскочит предупреждение: мол пакет черт знает откуда и вообще опасным может быть. Тихо соглашаемся. Далее нам предлагают отредактировать настройки для компиляции пакета. В принципе, можно выбрать что угодно – все равно по не знанию трогать ничего не надо.
После этого установщик проверит зависимости, но так как с qt мы уже подсуетились, то пойдет загрузка дистрибутива. Периодически нас будут спрашивать: стоит ли продолжать? Твердо стоим на своем.
Установка браузера Opera Arch
Наконец браузер установлен – можно выходит в интернет. Однако, вряд ли вас порадует то, что вы увидите – стандартные шрифты очень убоги. Что латиница:
Поэтому установим пакет с виндовыми шрифтами:
И перезапустим Opera. Для полного счастья осталось только установить Flash Player и установку можно считать завершенной.
