No point in having two build dependencies on the same port.  Also, you
need a file rather than a directory in dependency lines, so choose the
2nd line above.

In this case, you've already covered this by 'USE_MYSQL' below.  No need
to add any more dependencies.

Same: the RUN_DEPENDS on mysql56-server is supplied via 'USE_MYSQL'

Everything else there looks OK.

If this is your own port, then you should be using

WANT_MYSQL_VER=	56

inside the port's Makefile.  WITH_MYSQL_VER is what you used to put in
/etc/make.conf to set a system wide preference, but that has largely
beed superceeded by the new "DEFAULT_VERSIONS+= mysql=5.6" style nowadays.

Try fixing the duplicates in your RUN_ and BUILD_DEPENDS first, and use
WANT_MYSQL_VER rather than WITH_MYSQL_VER.  Then if you're still having
problems please do ask again -- although this is really a question for
freebsd-ports at ...  It will help if you explain exactly which port you're
dealing with -- if it's a new port not yet in the tree then please show
us the code by putting it up on a pasteboard site.  Also show us the
output when you try and build a package.
