Here [0] you can find our "supported platforms" (the ones for which we give detailed install instructions). I recommend you look into them and try to find the one that looks more like the one you have (maybe fedora.py?) and install the packages listed there. Once you have installed it, please let me know which packages you needed to install and I'll take care of creating an "suse.py" file in platforms and all the corresponding hooks, so others that use suse don't have this issue in the future.
