To my fellow Suse users that also use XBMC now known as KODI as said it’s available now.
Some items of note:
Once you install it XBMC is replaced.
For me at least, the 340.65 nvidia drivers from the opensuse nvidia repo caused all the KODI menus to be blank. Installation of the 343.13 drivers got them back. YMMV
