These errors are definately from opera, not from ipe. Opera can use
java, but apparently java is not installed, then you get those first two
errors, those are okay. The other error could be slightly more
worrysome, the libqt-mt is the multithreaded QT library. There is
probably a different package for the multithreaded version of qt which
you should use. I have no experience with ubuntu or debian though, so I
can't tell you which that would be.

The latest version of ipe uses QT4 by the way, so you should have that
installed as well, but since ipe is running fine that should be okay.
You could use the QT4 9.51 version of opera if you wish. But again, I
have no idea which package you would need in ubuntu.
