You might have more joy with the Debian package which is patched to fix various such build-time issues:
http://httpredir.debian.org/debian/pool/main/t/therion/therion_5.3.16-10.dsc
and the corresponding .orig.tar.gz and .debian.tar.gz
That's built against vtk6.2

This one is built against vtk6.1:
http://httpredir.debian.org/debian/pool/main/t/therion/therion_5.3.15-2.dsc

The debian vtk packaging layouts may not exactly match the Suse ones
but you will probably find clues.
Or you can look online here (although I don't see anything much that looks relevant):
https://sources.debian.net/src/therion/5.3.16-10/debian/patches/
