This just means that you need to have those two packages  
(ld-linux.so.2, and libqt.so.2) installed before you install the opera  
package. Here's a link to one of the packages (libqt.so.2). I didn't  
have time to find them both for you, but the second should be easily  
located with a little look around the web.

http://rpmfind.net//linux/RPM/yellowdog/1.0/contrib/2.2/RPMS/qt2-2.3.2- 
1.ppc.html

The predicament you're in is often called "package hell", and believe  
me, this is a minor example. However package hell is often a lot easier  
to deal with than compiling applications yourself.
