there should be a ReadMe file in the Opera folder

if it's anything like netscape or mozilla then you need to cd to the opera folder and either
./configure
make
su
make install

or run an installer script

i got the rpm (am also using mdk9.1) and it installed and works perfectly

Did you do it as root?
There is no readme, but there is a binary in the package.
