Not likely, any more than already, anyway. Remember SuSE is part of Novell,
now, and Novell is a US company.

Of course, that wouldn't necessarily stop the tariffs, but contracting with a US
CD pressing firm would. From what I've read, that's what Mandrake did,
then established a headquarters in the US as well as the one in France, in
part, to avoid such imports, and the related red tape they bring.
