At least the error message is very helpful. :-)   You have chosen secure
for your security model instead of easy, which changes the permissions
of /usr/sbin/zypp-checkpatches-wrapper.  You need to add
"/usr/sbin/zypp-checkpatches-wrapper  root.root    4755" to your
/etc/permissions.local file (make sure you end this line with an enter,
i.e new line).  Then run SuSEconfig.  This makes the fix permanent,
otherwise the perms would be reset by SuSEconfig.
