It didn't disappear - it was never there :)

Opera is not in main (can't be supported - closed source) , not in
universe (same thing really - how do you support it without source
code?) and not in multiverse ( it possibly could be in multiverse I
guess)

The Opera 9 beta for debian etch apparently "works" for dapper according
to some on IRC - I haven't located a download link for it though, sorry.
