fuerte rosmake fails on opensuse solution

Hi, I found this issue of ros fuerte on opensuse. After installing ros rosmake fails to function as it calls to a rospkg python script osdetect.py function getcodename() which is not implemented for open suse. My temporary work around was to modify os_detect.py in class opensuse add a dummy function(i do not know python)

def getcodename(self): return ('opensuse-112')

Then uninstall rospkg Lastly build and install modified rospkg from source

I tried to open a ticket but I am unable to do so for unknown reasons with trac wiki

I got an error saying server not found. I do not know if it was a problem with the place i was accessing internet from, but other sites were opening just fine.

There was a little bit of downtime recently on the servers. It should be back now.
