Hi Robin,

I'm not sure who packaged Rivet and YODA for OpenSUSE (or for any other 
Linux distribution), but it wasn't us! Our intended release timescale is 
every few months, which means that "officially" packaged versions tend 
not to be the latest and greatest.

I think for our small team making ready-to-use RPMs etc. for various 
Linux systems would be a distraction that we don't have the resources 
for... but I'm very happy if anyone wants to do so and needs some 
support from us in achieving it!

Thanks,
Andy
