As the hint says, you can deintsall it. After you're done with pkgdf -F
do a portupgrade -r on ruby18 or ruby16-shim-ruby18, which ever you
have.

It seems that you had down-graded your open-ldap. You now have installed
openladap 2.0.27 on you system, but when you've installed gmnome you had
2.1.13; you can either choose:
a) yes (or all) and doing so will "point" gnome (or all) "to depend" on
openldap-client-2.0.27 or 
b) no, terminate pkgbd and do a portupgrade on openldap-client to bring
it back to 2.1.xx

Choose what you need (if you have something that requires 2.0 do a if
not do b.)

And ? That make file sets CLIENT_ONLY=yes and includes the
../openldap21-server's Makefile so all is OK. Looking at the places
where CLINET_ONLY appears in the Make file tells that You can define to
have or not the docs installed and to have WITH_SASL with (Cyrus) SASL2
support.
