Comment (by nortcele):

 It seems that some dependencies are not where there are expected to be.

 I managed to have a functionning installation of AMC with the following
 commands.

 First uninstall all installed port to be sure to have updated versions of
 all dependencies.

 {{{
 sudo port uninstall installed
 }}}

 Then install perl5 at version 5.30 to be sure that modules are installed
 in the perl5.30 hierarchy and not some tools in perl5.28 hierarchy and
 others in perl3.30 hierarchy (which result in a non functioning auto-
 multiple-choice application).

 {{{
 sudo port install perl5 +perl5_30
 }}}

 If you haven't installed XQuartz, then install Macports version of Xorg
 (Macport version is more recent than XQuartz.


 {{{
 sudo port install xorg-server xterm xman xlogo
 }}}

 After installation of Macports version of Xorg, you should logout from
 your session and log in again.

 Then install auto-multiple-choice.

 {{{
  sudo port install auto-multiple-choice +mactex
 }}}

 Instead of the 1.4.0 version of auto-multiple-choice, you could install a
 more recent version with the following command.

 {{{
  sudo port install auto-multiple-choice-devel +mactex
 }}}

 But you could not install the 1.4.0 version and the devel version at the
 same time.

 I'll try to find some time to test and update auto-multiple-choice port to
 the recent 1.5.0 version.
