yast in fedora
 
Hi all,

I would like to ask whether there is a yast (or similar tool) for fedora?

Thanks!

It seems a GUI based installer tool. But I am looking for the text based intaller tool. As we know, yast is already in GPL license. Does anyone know where to download its SDK?

apt is a command line tool, but has a gui as an option which is synaptic. There is also yum which is a command line tool but can be used with a gyum a gui. You don't have to use the gui frontends if you don't want to.

dude why dont you just use yum or up2date which is native to fedora

Oh ... sorry for misleading you.
Actually, I want a text based installing tool for my application. As a result I can use the tool to provide a user-friendly text based interface for the installation. So I am looking for YaST similiar tool. As we know YaST is a SuSe's tool. I donno whether it can apply to Fedora. I also donno whether I can use YaST separately in Fedora. If not, another other similiar tools that I can use?
