If there is a contrib rpm but it doesn't seem to contain uuid-ossp,
the likely reason is that the maintainer never got around to adding
--with-ossp-uuid to the build options. (I know it took me a while
to add that to the Fedora build :-(.) You could confirm or deny
that theory by looking at the output of pg_config --configure.
If so, file a bug report with SUSE asking for that to be added.
