I'm sorry to say that SUSE just isn't a good source if you want to do serious
PostgreSQL deployment. They ship PostgreSQL because it's there, but they, as
an organization, just don't care enough to consistently provide the packages,
updates, and support that you'd want for serious use. So if you can't use a
different operating system, either accept what you get and hope you get away
with it, or prepare to spend some resources to do your own maintenance.
