[Rivet] Opensuse package

[Frank Siegert]

Hi Robin,

FWIW, there are Archlinux packages which I am keeping up-to-date quite
regularly. So you would at least find some typical dependencies and
build scripts ("PKGBUILD") there in case you want to take a look and
adapt them for future OpenSUSE packages:

  https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/rivet/
  https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/yoda/

(parts of the build scripts are only necessary because Archlinux uses
Python3 as default, I don't know whether that's the same in the
upcoming OpenSUSE?).

Cheers,
Frank
