You probably have two copies of the APEL package installed on your
load-path.  This is called "shadowing."

Use M-x list-load-path-shadows to find shadows.

Typically this occurs in Linux distros which attempt to support
distro-specific external packages by manipulating the load-path
directly.  You may need to ask SuSE how to avoid picking up an APEL
package that was installed to support GNU Emacs.
