I have just attempted to install the AUR opera-devel (10.5) package with "yaourt -S opera-devel" and it fails with:
checking dependencies...
error: replacing packages with -U is not supported yet
error: you can replace packages manually using -Rd and -U
error: failed to prepare transaction (conflicting dependencies)
:: opera-devel: conflicts with opera
==> WARNING: Your package is saved in /tmp/yaourt-tmp-larry/opera-devel-10.52_6272-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz
Any ideas what I do next? Yes, I do already have Opera 10.10 installed.

Υes, you must uninstall opera 10.10 first.
Opera 10.50 is not very usable, and has serious problems with languages other than... English.

To be more concise, Opera 10.50 for linux is at an alpha quality level.
The feature set is not yet complete. In addition to internationalization problems, integration with KDE does not exist, 10.5 also lacks mouse back/forward ability, right-click scroll to other tabs is broken, and 10.50 has problems with things like vBulletin forums.
10.50 is probably months away from a final stable release...by which time 10.6 for Windows will probably be out.

OK then, thanks everyone. I will patiently await a final release before reinstalling.

Do anyone know how to disable this feature in opera?

Reading the error message is usually a smart thing to do.

Just a thought, if do you want side by side installs of the stable and the development branch, you could use pacman/yaourt to install the stable and then use the install shell script (provided within the official tarball packages of the development branch) to perform a 'suffix install'. Management of the development install will be outside of pacman however (we provide our own uninstaller). If you don't like the sound of this, then obviously don't do it.
Alternatively you can just unpack one of the tarballs and run Opera in place. All settings/preferences will be kept within the extracted directory.
P.S. I guess if someone wants a PKGBUILD that allows side by side installation with the stable, I could probably make this fairly easily.

Try the latest build. Most of the input issues are resolved (unless you use an IME).

Yes it's working

Cool.

I took over opera-devel and hence dropped opera-snapshot, since opera-devel had more votes and hence likely more users.

do you know when opera will be finally released for linux?

@flamelab: Did you read the known issues in my blog post? Specifically,
Problems with bitmap fonts, resulting in narrow and multi-colored fonts on some websites
A bitmap font is being selected and then displays corrupted. Either remove fonts such as xorg-fonts-100dpi and xorg-fonts-75dpi (you probably don't need them), or wait for us to fix it.

I'll wait for you to fix it

@flamelab: Bitmap fonts are turned off by default now in 10.52-6320. This will solve the issue for many people. If it doesn't fix it for you I suspect you have a fonts that include bitmap versions but call themselves true type fonts. A good example of this is tahoma alternative (provided by the Wine and CrossOver packages). Look at '
/usr/share/wine/fonts/tahoma.ttf' with a utility like 'gnome-font-view'. You will see that at some sizes it provides bitmaps, which cannot have antialiasing applied to them. We'll probably blacklist such broken fonts in the future. In the mean time if tahoma alternative is your problem, you can replace it with Microsoft's Tahoma from the ttf-tahoma PKGBUILD on the AUR.
