This doesn't look like a Gnu Radio library.  Looks like the "lxml" 
library that was installed as part of your ssystem, and *NOT* as part of the
  Gnu Radio install.

My guess is that Yast installed the wrong thing, or that some type of 
"mixed 32-bit/64-bit" support option on your system is not installed.
