Installing swftools on FreeBSD using port tools

Doing a pkg_which swftools show nothing, and swftools needs to be installed. So what I did, I changed directory by cd /usr/ports/graphics/swftools/ then issued command   make install clean and encountered this error ===>   jpeg-8_1 depends on package: libtool>=2.2 - not found ===>   Found libtool-1.5.26, but you need to upgrade to libtool>=2.2. so I issued portupgrade command to upgrade my libtool by   portupgrade -r libtool then cd /usr/ports/graphics/swftools/ yet, another error I encountered. ===>   An older version of graphics/jpeg is already installed (jpeg-6b_7)       You may wish to ``make deinstall'' and install this port again       by ``make reinstall'' to upgrade it properly.       If you really wish to overwrite the old port of graphics/jpeg       without deleting it first, set the variable "FORCE_PKG_REGISTER"   ...
