Gamin is supposed to be the next generation replacement for fam, but some have said that gamin is not yet ready for production.... You should set WITH_FAM_SYSTEM= either gamin or fam in your make.conf depending on which you decide to permanently use. If you decide to switch to gamin, pkg_delete fam, then install gamin. Run pkgdb -F to change the dependency from fam to gamin on all the ports you listed above. Or just rebuild all the ports that you listed above. Or if you decide to stick with fam, see if you can force the install of the openoffice package despite the gamin dependency. Then run pkgdb -F and point openoffice's gamin dependency to fam.
