2c worth.

- Library management isn't great; moving to OpenSuse from a Ubuntu 
distribution, reinstalling 6.3 nearly broke my brain! OpenSuse installs 
similarly to the Fedora set, I think.

As well as the listed dependencies, there is (as Glynn said) a bunch of 
dependent libraries. Forgive the Suse-specific names, get the rights 
ones for Fedora instead.
gdal-1.5.1-5.1.i586.rpm

This should get your failure list down to a manageable amount ...
