Hi,
I found that TeXlive 2014 has released on 14 June 2014, but we still have just TeX Live 2013 in the repo, http://software.opensuse.org/package/texlive . However, building TeX Live packages is complicated, I have no idea how to do it. I wanna build a dummy package, texlive-dummy, so that I can install TeX Live via DVD ISO from https://www.tug.org/texlive/ and don't get in trouble with dependency. Some packages, such as kile, texstudio, require texlive or tex files as their dependency. I did not get the texlive-dummy work well. I wonder it's there any way to install TeX Live 2014 via ISO, not from the repo, but don't result in dependency issue?
You can install the new version from DVD next to the one provided by openSUSE. It is not very difficult and as far as I remember only the GUI of tlmgr needs some extra package installed, the rest is working out of the box. You only need to tell kile etc. to use this new version. How to do this can be found by googling it. This is possible. The other way is to branch the texlive program you use in your home project and remove all the texlive requires and rebuild it. Then you can remove texlive and install from DVD and immediately use this. Cor
How about we build TeX Live packages with tlmgr, TeX Live manager, which is not available in TeX Live 2013 packages in the repo? We just build TeX Live distribution for one time per year, and manager/update macro packages with tlmgr. Although, TeX Live distribution release every year, but people update packages to http://www.ctan.org/ everyday. We need tlmgr to stay up-to-date with CTAN.
Best wishes
