Ubuntu software installer freezes while installing Opera

[Stan]

Downloaded latest .deb from Opera (amd64), and opened it with software installer. Software installer started out fine, got authentication, then froze. It has 'installing' in the little box near the top under the name of the software 'Opera-stable'. Didn't work on second download either, so doubt it is corruption of download. No messages issued describing why it froze, no time-out happened to rescue the situation, nothing presented to tell anyone where it was when it froze, just frozen box.

The freeze occurs near the final step in the process. After rebooting, Opera was installed and appears to operate correctly.
