ibmrtpkgs uses /var/lock/subsys which is unsupported on openSUSE.
On openSUSE /var/lock is reserved for device lock files and must
not be used for other purposes.

Due to the use of tmpfs on /var/lock the subsys directory does not
exist anymore either so if your package used /var/lock/subsys for
any real purpose it might be silently broken already.

Please fix your packge to not use /var/lock/subsys.

Ok, finally found my round tuit.
