--- Comment #1 from Kubilay Kocak <koobs@FreeBSD.org> ---
It appears this port manually (attempts to) install the etk.docking dependency
[1]

Having said that there are a few issues with the state of this port in general. 

For example it appears to BUILD_DEPENDS on py-nose (a unit testing framework)
which is very likely bogus. 

This itself however, is unlikely to cause the issue reported here, but is a
reflection of the probable quality and robustness of the port in general.

This port is currently unmaintained, and as such I would recommend that you
attempt to isolate the root cause of why the port doesn't correctly install
etk.docking as it attempts to do.

Additionally, using easy_install to install Python packages into the system
site-packages path is completely unsupported (and not recommended) as it
bypasses ports/package management systems.

If you would like assistance isolating the root cause of this, you are welcome
to join #freebsd-python on the freenode IRC network.

You are correct however that a port requiring additional python dependencies,
should either do so itself, or as recommended, with ports of those python
packages.
