How do I uninstall Opera Browser.  When I right click icon it doesn't present a remove option as stated in the Linux Lite manual.
Look for this in synaptic package manager

Code:
$ apt-cache policy opera-developer opera-developer:   Installed: 33.0.1967.0   Candidate: 33.0.1967.0   Version table: *** 33.0.1967.0 0         500 http://deb.opera.com/opera-developer/ stable/non-free amd64 Packages         100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

I don't wish to remove mine but I will show a simulation of a command line uninstall.

Code:
$ sudo apt-get -s remove opera-developer Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree      Reading state information... Done The following packages will be REMOVED:   opera-developer 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 1 to remove and 40 not upgraded. Remv opera-developer [33.0.1967.0]

sudo apt-get opera-developer without using -s switch will uninstall opera via command line. Or use synaptic package manager to uninstall it.

Use Install/Remove Software:

Menu->System->Install/Remove Software

Search for "opera" and mark it for complete removal.  Then click on Apply.
sudo apt-get remove opera
