A second Opera 11.00 final build for Linux/FreeBSD
We have just pushed a new Opera 11.00 release for Linux and FreeBSD to our ftp, deb and download servers. The reason we're doing this is that we just realized that the signing key for Debian packages expires the 23rd this month. Since Opera 11.01 is slated to be shipped after this date, we need to issue an updated Opera 11.00 with a new signing key before that, so that people are actually able to update to Opera 11.01 using the default package manager.
This new build is squarely aimed at users of Ubuntu and other Debian based Linux distros. However, to keep the build numbers on all UNIX platforms in sync, we've also pushed new builds for FreeBSD and others. You do not have to update unless you have a Ubuntu or Debian based distro. If you use Windows or Mac, there is also no need to update.

The key is changed and the binary is updated to know of the new build number. Also copyright notices in language files now say 2011, instead of 2010. There are no further fixes however.

When will this update happen exactly? Tomorrow at the earliest? I have this error for almost a week already. Do we get the error because we have the new key, but not the old one that hasn't expired yet?

That would explain it. The previous snapshot also included the new key. This new key is not yet being used on deb.opera.com yet. We'll switch over shortly (Monday). You will stop getting the error then.gerix23. January 2011, 14:45

If anyone sees such an error make sure you have 11.00.1176 installed. If not you can always get it from:
