The command in question was introduced some time prior to the release of
gnuplot version 4.6 (January 2012).  A quick search indicates that there are
plenty of SuSE packages for gnuplot 4.6, so you should be fine using one
of those.

If you do want to build from current CVS source, the minimal set of 
commands is
    ./prepare
    ./configure
    make

It is likely that the output from ./configure will indicate additional
development packages that would need to be installed in order to include
support for specific terminal types or other features.  In other words,
you need to install many more packages to build gnuplot from source than
you need for simply running a pre-built executable.
