Dependencies missing in Opera 10.10 for YouTube videos-Firefox has them built in

I just had to spend a morning struggling to get YouTube videos to work in Opera when Firefox played them perfectly well.
To fix it, I had to jump through hoops following the instructions on this page http://my.opera.com/ruario/blog/flash-problems-on-linux
All these dependencies are included in Firefox and not included in Opera - why is that???
libsoftokn3.so
libnss3.so
libsmime3.so
libssl3.so
libplds4.so
libplc4.so
libnspr4.so

I had to copy these one by one to the /usr/lib/ folder.....very tedious.
WHY WHY WHY WHY????

P.S. Using Xandros EEEPC

Creegah, Hi I take shortcuts after installing all plugins codecs and such on my Linux OS I copy all plugins from the plugins folder into Opera's plugin folder works like a charm.
