This RPM won't install cleanly on your SuSE because it's built on a Redhat
system with a different set of libraries.

When I was using SuSE, I had good luck recompiling the source RPMs, but even
then I had to fix the SPEC file here and then (for example SuSE doesn't have an
expat-devel package, but the expat package also includes the header files).

The least frustrating experience will IMHO be to install all the necessary
development tools from CD and just recompile Python yourself from the source
distribution. It will then by default install in /usr/local. The advantage of
this approach is that it won't complain about missing dependencies, but simply
only compile the modules of those modules where configure finds the header
files.
