Hi Mark

Unfortunately, Viber for Linux has the exact same issue as Skype in
terms of packaging:
it is a binary package, no sources available, and while I haven't
checked the redistribution
license, I'm expecting it to forbid any redistribution.

Hence while it could be done from a technical point of view, there is
just no way that
openSUSE or Packman could package and provide it.

cheers,
Pascal.
