A couple of minor nits:
mtr is be built with a gtk+ interface for displaying results, if
present, but you've omitted the from DEPENDS.
Not sure what you intend, so either (i) explicitly configure
--without-gtk, or (ii) add the needed gtk devel package(s) to DEPENDS.
After I build this, 'mtr -v' reports 'mtr UNKNOWN'
Otherwise, looks good.
