Strange dependencies

Guys,
First, a few words about me:
I was quite familiar with FreeBSD back in past. Let's say in version 6 or so. For a few years I haven't worked with FreeBSD at all. Now I inherited a FreeBSD 9.1 server from one of my co-workers and I'm little confused with ports dependencies.

Because it is 9.1 and it is no longer supported i'd like to upgrade it to 9.3 releng. Before that I need to upgrade some packages which are vulnerable. And there are troubles. For example I want to upgrade wget. Pretty simple isn't it? Not exactly:
Code:
[root@deamon ~]# pkg upgrade wget
Updating FreeBSD repository catalogue...
FreeBSD repository is up-to-date.
All repositories are up-to-date.
Checking integrity... done (6 conflicting)
Checking integrity... done (0 conflicting)
The following 7 packages will be affected (of 0 checked):

Installed packages to be REMOVED:
        p5-Mail-SpamAssassin-3.3.2_6

New packages to be INSTALLED:
        gettext-runtime: 0.19.4
        gettext-tools: 0.19.4

Installed packages to be UPGRADED:
        wget: 1.14 -> 1.16.2_1
        libiconv: 1.14 -> 1.14_6
        gettext: 0.18.1.1 -> 0.19.4
        libidn: 1.26 -> 1.29

It is WGET! It has no connection to Spamassasin. Why did pkg want to deinstall SpamAssassin?

There are more: when I want to install spamassassin (not p5-mail-spamassasin), pkg wanted to deinstall... apache, mc or postgrey!

I can't reinstall whole server and install the newest version because there is no time for that. It has to be running for now. And I want it to be updated and safe. But I can't. Right now all vulnerable services are disabled but it is only a temporary solution.

Could you please help me? What to do? How to upgrade only one package or how to remove those strange dependencies?

Best,

Ev.

Code:
20140310:
  AFFECTS: users of mail/p5-Mail-SpamAssassin and japanese/p5-Mail-SpamAssassin
  AUTHOR: ohauer@FreeBSD.org

  The port mail/p5-Mail-SpamAssassin was renamed to mail/spamassassin and
  the port japanese/p5-Mail-SpamAssassin was renamed to japanese/spamassassin.
  To ease upgrading run the following set of commands:

  pkgng users:

  # pkg set -o mail/p5-Mail-SpamAssassin:mail/spamassassin
  # pkg set -o japanese/p5-Mail-SpamAssassin:japanese/spamassassin
 
What said pkg info p5-Mail-SpamAssassin and pkg info mail/spamassassin?
Maybe, you have to put WITH_PKGNG=yes in your /etc/make.conf.
I am not sure if it's necessaire to run pkg2ng now on a new 9.3 system.

Description    :
SpamAssassin is a mail filter which attempts to identify spam using text
analysis and several internet-based realtime blacklists.

Using its rule base, it uses a wide range of heuristic tests on mail
headers and body text to identify "spam", also known as unsolicited
commercial email.

Once identified, the mail can then be optionally tagged as spam for later
filtering using the user's own mail user-agent application.
