Pretty much what it sounds like: manage your packages, update system, 
etc. Better than debian, if you ask me, as my experiences with apt-get 
are not particularly positive. One of those YMMV things, I guess.

And I quote: "Like all other parts of YaST2, the YaST2 package manager 
is licensed under the terms of the YaST2 license. While not quite as 
liberal as other licenses, it is still open source: Of course we ship 
the sources along with it - just like the other packages of the SuSE 
distribution. There are some restrictions, but most of them are relevant 
only for commercial use - i.e. it prohibits other companies from making 
profit by simply repacking and rebranding the SuSE distributions."
