Check: https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:NVIDIA_drivers Cuda's rpm for openSUSE are available from NVIDIA too.

If your target is to create packages in your home repo, then you can use openSUSE's OBS. It makes sense to use packman mainly if you are going to publish packages that cannot be hosted in the default openSUSE's repositories.
