As you can see here, it tried to install another required port:

But your copy of this port was a version from 9 months ago.

It's not really a good idea to try to download individual port
directories like this, because most ports depend on several others
that you also need to keep up-to-date.  Either install or update the
full ports collection, or use the precompiled packages (e.g. pkg_add
-r).
