All of the ports were changed PORTNAME, PORTVERSION, and DISTNAME was removed.
You need an up todatae bsd.port.mk in order to use these ports.

You need to check your bsd.port.mk file, it should be at least:

# $FreeBSD: ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk,v 1.333 2000/04/04 07:05:36 asami Exp $

To use the Ports Collection with the PORTNAME, PORTVERSION variables.

The latest is v 1.340.

If your not cvsupping ports-all, you need to add ports-base to your cvsup file.
