DON'T.

We made the mistake of switching to CSW.  What they've done is re-implement
Debian's APT in ksh.  Yes, it works about as well as you expect.

Blastwave decides to take over your entire computer.  It borks your Sendmail
setup.  All their packages are compiled with Sun's C compiler, so if you
ever need to install XS Perl modules and you only have gcc available, forget
it.

Blastwave's QA is awful.  I would stay away from them and stick to
sunfreeware.com.

David.
