Hm, apparently zypper/apt-get is missing the Vim sources, which are found in a different repository than the rest. The URL for the Leap 42.1 Source (OSS) repository is http://download.opensuse.org/source/distribution/leap/42.1/repo/oss -- you can add it by URL with the YaST "Software → Software Repositories" menu, it ought not to overwrite your clone of Bram's source (so they can live together) but if you have all the other requirements, and in particular the necessary libraries and their "development" packages, it ought already to be OK.
Then reconfigure and recompile. See http://users.skynet.be/antoine.mechelynck/vim/compunix.htm for details. Best regards, Tony.
