Pascal has hidden some packages here: http://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/misc/suser-drcux/93/rpm/ here there is a singular working rpm for kchm. The i586 package won't do.

the above bash script takes a long time to run, but once it's done, "YaST2 sw_single" has nothing left to do and opens up without delay.
