Sorry, that is not our problem.
You have choosen to create symlinks from the texlive installation to
/usr/local.
If a program does not work for you then we are sorry, but we cannot
guarantee that everything works on all linux incantations.
If you want to fix that, just simply do NOT add all the links to
/usr/local/ (you can remove them with tlmgr symlinks remove) and simply
add the real path to the texlive binaries AT THE END of your PATH
setting.
That is definitely not a bug here, but with system integration. If you
want to have well integrated TL into your distribution wait until SUSE
packages TeX Live 2008.
Best wishes
Norbert

NACTION (n.)
The 'n' with which cheap advertising copywriters replace the word
'and' (as in 'fish 'n' chips', 'mix 'n' match', 'assault 'n'
battery'), in the mistaken belief that this is in some way chummy or
endearing.
