No clue about OpenSuse, but this sounds like no plugins at all can be found. 

Can you run the following and paste its output somewhere online?

ktraderclient --servicetype KDevelop/Plugin

Especially interesting is the X-KDevelop-Version here, for 4.5.2 it should be 
15. So to make sure, just see whether this produces a different result:

ktraderclient --servicetype KDevelop/Plugin --constraint '[[X-KDevelop-
Version]] == "15"'

Also double check the stuff installed by your package manager, i.e. do 
something like:

find /usr/share -name "kdev*.desktop" | xargs grep X-KDevelop-Version
