You need to install the libpng delegate (I used libpng-1.2.24.tar.gz).

Something is wrong if you don't get any return.

Try simply

convert -list configure

IM should be installed in such a way that it can be run from your 
home directory.

However, I have no experience with installing using MacPorts as it 
appears you are doing.

MacPorts will have to install all the delegate libraries.

For use with eps, pdf, etc, you need both Ghostscript and Freetype delegates.

Hope that helps.
