If using manual 'rpm -Uvh' commands, how to update the YaST2 package
database?


The YaST2 "package database" *is* the rpm database. YaST is a gui
frontend... ;-)

Yet, will the YaST2 software list be automatically updated or completed
installing additional or newer packages with rpm commands?


Yes, it will -- but you should avoid to install packages while the YaST2
packagemanager is running, because this could lead to confusion ;)

But is YaST2 software manager suited to install or upgrade the complete Gnome desktop, or is an installation script best to manage a required package order? I thought at least running YaST2 from a gnome session may cause problems trying a Gnome version upgrade or?

Thanks,
Terje
