How old is your openSUSE?

https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=824729 may be what you see 
(hostname related). IIRC, you can avoid the delay by making sure /etc/hosts 
properly contains your hostname.

I'm pretty sure you can use a newer mc version from a supported openSUSE release 
without any issues, except for latest, 4.8.18, which is broken.
