You should probably be able to find gcc, glibc, and the other programs needed to compile (wouldn't hurt to get automake, autoconfig while your at it) with yast. I don't use Suse but I know that much.
A tar.bz2 is probably a source file, you both are looking for an .rpm file, which is a packaged, percompiled binary that is installed with "rpm /path/to/file.rpm" or, like I said, with yast.
Read up on it.
