Novice Alert!

I keep hitting this error output when trying pkg_add or use ports
method to install nmap

The instant cases were  pkg_add nmap-3.95p0-no_x11.tgz

Error is:   Unknown element: @pkgpath net/libdnet,no_python

>From ports net/nmap
  FLAVOR=no_x11 make install

It pulls in what seem like some unlikely dependancies and errors out
with the same error on one of them:

   ===>  Building package for db-4.2.52p8
Unknown element: @pkgpath databases/db/v4,no_tcl

An aside here is that the no_tcl flavor seems odd since this make
pulled in tcl as a dep:
   ===>  Verifying install for tcl-8.4.* in lang/tcl/8.4
===>  Checking files for tcl-8.4.7p1
>> tcl8.4.7-src.tar.gz doesn't seem to exist on this system.
>> Fetch http://puzzle.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/tcl/tcl8.4.7-src.tar.gz.

So what is the root problem?  Does nmap really need all that?
Anyone know what this error is trying to tell me?
