If you google "suse runsnake" you'll get RPM hits, so at least third
parties have packaged it for opensuse. I wouldn't go and install random
rpms from the web, but for instance
[http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/4/idpl/21440304/dir/opensuse_12.x/com/RunSnakeRun-2.0.2b1-6.2.noarch.rpm.html
this page] lists the requirements of the rpm. With a bit of luck THOSE can
be satisfied by yast (the main one probably being python-wxWidgets) so
that from that point your easily installed runsnake might work.
Packaging a runsnake for sage's python would involve recompiling sage's
python with wx support. That sounds painful.
