I'd suggest you simply download the tarballs. Try shlibs.rpm and shlibs5.rpm
from the suse/a1 directory first. They have lots of the dependent libraries
you will need.

Paths may differ wildly in two different distros - especially redhat and suse.
I tried an experiment in which I installed a redhat kernel rpm into a suse box
- and thanked $deity I'd got a backup of my old kernel :)
Better download from the tarball.
