    According to this it should work, although notice it comes in both
    a Universal (Intel&PPC) version and an Intel-Only version:

    <http://www.opera.com/support/kb/view/793/>

    It didn't launch for me on a PPC G5 with 10.5.8.

    Strangely, it DID launch from the mounted .dmg, but not when it's
    been copied to Applications.

    I saw these messages in Console when I attempt to launch from
    Applications:

    5/3/10 1:57:40 AM com.apple.launchd[206]
    ([0x0-0x1593592].com.operasoftware.OperaUpdate[39758]) Exited with
    exit code: 1

posix_spawnp("/Users/~/Library/Caches/Opera/2805502960/Update.app/Contents/MacOS/Update",
    ...): Permission denied

    For me, the solution was to go to:

    /Users/~/Library/Caches/ and trash the "Opera" folder. Once I
    trashed this cache file, it launched normally for me.

    You may also have Preferences folders that could be causing
    problems, they'd be in:

    /Users/~/Library/Preferences



Weird.
