Yeah right.

It means you have to install gpp and libgpp via yast (series d).

If you want to compile --with-tcl you´ll have to install the tcl/tk header
libs as well. (Series TCL, Packet tcld)

Remember to delete your config.cache as well if you ran into these
problems. I didn´t for the first time and i ran into a compiler error
(gettimeofday - too few arguments in postmaster.c) afterwards.

After these things postgres compiles just fine.
