I highly recommend you to learn more about portupgrade, you can search for  
'portupgrade' in google.com and there should be in the five top good  
articles about it. Showing you what your problem is...(bottom)

This is problem, we have the ORBit 2.10.2 in ports tree so you need to  
update it. Since, you have GNOME 2.4 and we already have GNOME 2.6, so I  
recommend you to visit http://www.freebsd.org/gnome/docs/faq26.html to  
learn how to upgrade your GNOME from 2.4 to 2.6.

Cheers,
