If suse contributes their spec file I think we could delete the top level rdma-core.spec There are enough differences in the suse spec file I suspect it would be more maintainable to have it separate. We still have to test the builds against that configuration anyhow, I dont see a big burden there - so long as cbuild can run an appropriate suse build (opensuse is OK for testing?)..
