Guys, then get your hands dirty and package it yourself! :)

https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/devel:ARM:Factory:Contrib:Zynq
already exists. And you can always branch JeOS into your home: project.

kernel-ifc6410 made me finally give up packaging downstream kernels; I
will rather put my energy into enhancing the upstream kernel, which we
then get via Kernel:HEAD -> Kernel:stable -> Factory[:ARM].
I've spent too much time fixing build warnings/errors of BSP kernels
only to find that the resulting binary in the package gives no serial
console output or __logbuf info at all, or it fails to properly install
through zypper with weird unresolved dependencies. :/

With v3.17-rc1, in the next days we'll have a kernel-default that
supports UART console and Ethernet, but no USB or HDMI yet. Not sure if
that's what the average user of a JeOS-parallella image expects?

Packaging the two bitstream files is a trivial first step that's needed
either way. Probably we should dig out the respective source files and
package those alongside then. Anyone?

Regards,
Andreas
