YaST was licensed under GPLv2 somewhen in 2004/2005. So it can be used
by anyone and inside any distri, although it is currently on used in
(open)SuSE, yet.

yast2-devtools is the central-pkg, which is need to compile the
YaST-core and to develop and/or compile the modules which add functions
or config-tools to YaST [1] [2].

Since the effort of a GSoC-project, which made libYUI (I'll talk on that
later) independent of zypper (pkg-management in SuSE) [3]. It would be a
piece of cake to have the basic YaST-components to be ported to debian.

The YasT-modules themselves need to be modded or redevlopped for debian,
like make them use debconf, aptitude, dpkg or other debian-native tools
instead of SuSE-native ones.

libYUI (Yast User Interface) is a nifty lib to develop UIs using
ncurses, gtk and qt. The special about it is you only need only one pice
of code to get your UI work without having to worry about your tools is
run from console, gnome, kde or somewhat else [4]. It was initially
designed to make YaST's UI independent from the user's environment.

So I think YaST would be a piece software, which could bring debian to
larger audience by giving a way to setup daemons or system-settings in
an easy way, even when you're just using a console-based (server-)system

YaST itself isn't messing around in the confs. This is the problem of
SusE.config (which is called by several YaST-modules inside SusE).
SuSE.config is the more or less somewhat compound of debconf. So for
debian the modules need to be modded as stated above.

I think it's cool, too.
Are you a DD? Would you like to sponsor it?

> Are you planning to package also the python bindings?

For sure, when the main pkg is done. I'll pkg the qt, gtk+ and ncurses
plugins and after that the other avail bindings (python and ruby are
available yet, I think) of course.
