Probably just because it's the eval version. Check out
http://www.novell.com/products/suselinux/applicationdevelopment.html
where they say:

"...And, with powerful databases like MySQL, PostgreSQL and Derby as
application-development resources, there's no telling how far you can
go!..."

and later on:

" ...PostgreSQL is a highly-scalable, SQL-compliant, open source
database management system. Its newest features include savepoints
(which allow specific parts of a transaction to be aborted without
affecting the transaction's remainder), point-in-time recovery,
tablespaces, column-type changes, new Perl server-side language and
much more. For the first time, SUSE Linux 10.0 now includes a YaST
module to easily set up PostgreSQL...."

So it doesn't look like SuSE is dumping PostgreSQL.
