I'm on a Mandriva 2011 machine but have a working opera.

One needs however to upgrade several things.

1. upgrade openssl to OpenSSL 1.0.2e 3 Dec 2015 where

the patch openssl-1.0.2-disable-sslv2v3.patch should be revoked.

So do NOT disable SSLv3.

2. upgrade rootcerts to rootcerts-20151029.00

3. upgrade wget to wget-1.14-4.2

4. upgrade curl to curl-7.28.1-8

5. upgrade nss3 to nss-3.21.0-1

for step 5 one needs to correct and patch a very serious

error inside libstdc++ which on Mandriva 2011 is a part

of gcc 4.6.1. The details of the bug are here :

the details of the upgrade of nss3 to nss-3.21.0 are here :

ftp://ftp.crashrecovery.org/pub/linux/nss3/RPMS/mdv2011/README.txt

After that opera will have no issues whatsoever connecting

to high profile websites using https.
