Portupgrade Stale Dependency Issue

Just ran pkgdb -F per prompt from the portversion program and got the 
following
two messages:

Stale origin: 'textproc/ruby-rdoc': perhaps moved or obsoleted.
-> The port 'textproc/ruby-rdoc' was removed on 2003-12-15 because:
        "integrated into ruby18 and ruby16-shim-ruby18"
-> Hint: ruby-rdoc-0.9.0 is not required by any other package
-> Hint: checking for overwritten files...
 -> No files installed by ruby-rdoc-0.9.0 have been overwritten by other 
packages.
Deinstall ruby-rdoc-0.9.0 ? [no]

Appears as though I'm being told that ruby-rdoc-0.9.0 can be removed, 
yet the
default selection re deinstall is "no".  Am I missing something?

Second:
Stale dependency: gnome2-2.4.1 -> openldap-client-2.1.23 
(net/openldap21-client):
openldap-client-2.0.27 (score:76%) ? ([y]es/[n]o/[a]ll) [no]

I click the default selection "no" and I'm prompted to input a new 
dependency.
Assuming that I need to install openldap-client-2.1.23, I review the
net/openldap21-client port directory and I only find a Makefile.

If someone can explain what the program is asking, I may be in a better
position to respond appropriately.

Thanks very much,
Bob
