Yes. However, admittedly, openSUSE is not a primary target right now
(which probably is not a good answer, sorry), since we are very busy
working on the SLE HA distribution.
Once I'm done with the major effort there right now, I plan on getting
it all pushed to openSUSE Factory / 11.3, but the openSUSE 11.2 versions
are lagging behind what I'd personally consider "good to use".

IMHO, this is very unsafe and bordering on insanity ;-) The problem is
that there's absolutely no protection against adminstrative mistakes.
You're probably better off compiling from source or using new upstream
packages.
