Well, i don't know, because i compile all myself.

Perhaps somewhere have more informations about Exiv2 Suse packages available 
somewhere ?

if no, well, only use the official Exiv2 10.0 package for suse, including 
developement package to compile of course.

But, take a care : like developper of Exiv2 project (yes i'm very active 
(:=))), i'm must ask you than Exiv2 0.11 is more stable and more improved 
than 0.10.
