Fair point.  I'm not sure I've ever built an RPM from an SRPM like that;
I've always managed to stay in the sweetspot.  I'll take a look at it, though,
in my free time this week.  

I had installed 12.1 in a futile attempt to avoid the Cool New Thing which
systemd is not; it turned out there was a Brown Paper Bag install bug in
it somewhere, and I had to give up and go to 12.2, which is what's on there
now.

I'm not all that fond of upgrading to .0 releases, which OpenSUSE now terms
.1 releases so as to get people to install them anyway (I really, really
wish I was making any part of that up), so if I can stay on 12.2 which also 
has NVidia drivers, so much the better.

Thanks for the reminder, Gary.

Cheers,
