These are from Sunfreeware. You cannot mix packages between SFW and OpenCSW
as there are numerous pathes that would need to be adjusted.

Please always use pkgutil to make sure you have the correct dependencies installed.
For details see
  http://www.opencsw.org/manual/for-administrators/index.html
You may want to download and install from different machines if you don’t have internet
access as described in "Installing packages en masse“.

This at least is an installtime-requirement. Please remove the CSW-packages before
reinstalling them properly in the correct order.

Yes.

No, the idea of OpenCSW is to avoid just that :-)
