It's not at all clear whether these packages can co-exist with oss-cad-suite. I'm starting a new project on an UPduino 3.1. Should I use oss-cad-suite or these packages?

The oss-cad-suite is the main package to use. All the obsolete packages have been removed in the latest stable apio 0.8.2 version (the 0.8.1 version was a transition between the old toolchain and the new oss-cad-suite)
