You may have to install with CPAN. It'd be called Authen:Htpasswd there I think.

Something like 'install Authen:Htpasswd' from the CPAN prompt, once 'cpan' is done asking you questions.

Code:
zypper install Authen:htpasswd

Refreshing service 'spacewalk'.
Loading repository data...
Reading installed packages...
'Authen:htpasswd' not found in package names. Trying capabilities.
No provider of 'Authen:htpasswd' found.
Resolving package dependencies...

Nothing to do.

Perl has its own installer system, 'cpan'. Run it as root and answer its questions, then 'install Authen:Htpasswd'

CPAN.pm requires configuration, but most of it can be done automatically.
If you answer 'no' below, you will enter an interactive dialog for each
configuration option instead.

Would you like to configure as much as possible automatically? [yes]

Autoconfigured everything but 'urllist'.

Now you need to choose your CPAN mirror sites.  You can let me
pick mirrors for you, you can select them from a list or you
can enter them by hand.

Would you like me to automatically choose some CPAN mirror
sites for you? (This means connecting to the Internet) [yes]

Autoconfiguration complete.

You can re-run configuration any time with 'o conf init' in the CPAN shell
Terminal does not support AddHistory.

Enter 'h' for help.
