Here's a partial answer:

Unfortunately, while yast has limited command line options, it isn't
nearly as nice as yum.

As already mentioned, you can find some apt repositories, although not
nearly as many or as complete as those for Fedora. For awhile the
community seemed to be drifting toward opencarpet, but I haven't heard
any more about that.

I suspect that with the creation of opensuse, we will see suse catching
up to yum, or just switching to use yum also.
