Don't prefix the plist with ${WRKSRC}. What that is telling you is
those files are listed in the pkg-plist but are not installed in the
path listed. If you're using port test add -i -C flags and do a ^c
after install. You then need to check in the tmp directory of that
port and see if those files are found in the path listed in the
pkg-plist. If those files are not installed, you either need to fix
your install or remove them from the plist.
