SuSE uses RPM packages; to find the content of package fltk:

rpm -ql fltk

The package might not be called fltk, but if it contains fltk in the
name, you could first search for it:

rpm -qa | grep -i fltk

It might be that there are more packages found by the line above; f.e.
Red Hat likes to have in the normal package (in this case called:
fltk-x.y.z.x86_64.rpm) the runtime files, including shared libs, and
in the -devel package (fltk-devel-x.y.z.x86_64.rpm) the header files
and static libs.
