The packages you want/need are called “libxml2-devel” and “libxslt-devel” on openSUSE. So install those with YaST->Software Management, or run:
sudo zypper in libxml2-devel libxslt-devel
thanks 
… in my case
sudo zypper install --oldpackage libxslt-devel-1.1.28-5.1.2.x86_64
working…
So you already had a higher version of libxslt-devel installed?
From where?
libxslt-devel-1.1.28-5.1.2 is the one that’s included in openSUSE 13.1.
