I sympathize, I found a very similar issue with the HA Extension, the 
solution being adding the HA Extension in order to be able to make the 
correct use of the relevant SDK packages.

This is actually covered in the SDK readme, which explains that the SDK 
is for SLES, SLED, and it's extensions, and some packages may not work 
without the the presence of the appropriate product.

When it comes to this kind of thing, I find it beneficial to think of 
Modules very much like I think of SLE Extensions

Hope this helps,
