Yes. The skin= key must be located in main [Midnight-Commander] section.

I've tried to setup a skin in ~/.mc/ini using several ways:

1) skin=gotar
2) skin=gotar.ini
3) skin=/usr/share/mc/skins/gotar.ini

Everything works fine for me.

If you use "su" to be a root, you might get a home directory for user
not for root:

[andrew myhost ~]$ su -c 'echo $HOME'
Password: 
/home/andrew
[andrew myhost ~]$ su - -c 'echo $HOME'
Password: 
/root
