I have spent some time on producing 2.99.2+sles11r2 pacakges.
However I have hit a few problems with regards to dependancies*.
Hence the delay in making them available.

* I have a cicular dependancy between pacemaker and heartebat.
  After speaking with Andrew Beekhof I now know that
  pacemaker should depend on hearbteat and not the other way around.

  I also need to sort our a way for pacemaker to depend
  on specific so versions of libraries provided by heartbeat.
  I will most likely do this by having "Provides: liblrm2..." in
  the heartbaet binary package.
