SuSE 8.2 Pro had the libraries available as an "additional" option.  You 
could select and install them.  Don't know about the later versions.  
You can download the ISOs for 9.0 and 9.1 Pro at 
http://j2eeguys.com/~steve if you want to check.  The SuSE website 
probably has some additional information as well.

Btw, I still have the 8.2 CDs, if you need a copy.

Regards,
Steve
