---------------------^^^^^

I have updated the version requirement. Anyone should get better error by  
now.

--------------------------------------^^^^^^^^

It said that you need to have 0.8.7 or above installed.

--------------------^^^^^

You have 0.8.6 installed, which you need to have 0.8.7.

The thumb rule of use ports tree when you checkout (update). You must  
always update your installed ports (be sure to view /usr/ports/UPDATING)  
before you try to go to /usr/ports/foo/bar and install it. If you don't  
update your ports tree then it's safe to go to /usr/ports/foo/bar and  
install it at any time.
