I'm able to reproduce this problem as follows:

hp010# make install USE_GNOME=no
===>  dolphin-0.8.2 cannot install: Unknown component no.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/x11-fm/dolphin.

The problem is that USE_GNOME is being set to "no", and then when
Mk/bsd.gnome.mk checks the USE_GNOME value for valid components it is
unable to find the gnome component "no".  This causes it to set the
IGNORE variable.

Check your /etc/make.conf for the USE_GNOME variable and remove it.
