I don't know if any of you are aware of how very difficult it is to
build gimp-gap-2.4.0 in the openSUSE environment?

I have just reviewed this package. It contains a lot of patent
encumbered code.

Only file format stripped version could be legally prepared for
openSUSE. I am not sure, whether feature stripped version would be
interesting for anybody. Such version would contain all the editing
features, but it will not support any standard file format.

Things, which may be included:
- Motion JPEG
- Single frame encoding
- AVI RAW stream encoding
- WAV audio

Things which have to go:
- MPEG2/4 ffmpeg video and avi xvid support
- MPEG2/4 ffmpeg audio
- MP3 audio
- A52/AC3 (possibly)
