Thats normal business, some ports (for example ghostscript) have some
build dependencies. In this case ghostscript needs the jpeg sources
to include some headers.
Therefore apsfilter port has a dependency to extract only the jpeg
sources.
The ports collection mechanism relies on being (nearly) fully installed.
Minus some japanese, korean, etc stuff, that you might not need...

fine.

No, I don't this so. Installing /usr/ports only partly simply isn't a
good idea, if you don't know exactly what you do.

That's simply resolved by the ports collection itself.
But you need to use it correctly...
