Hi Julia,

to start the install from scratch you could run

sudo port uninstall installed

maybe several times. Then

sudo port install pspp

to recover from any misconfigured or incomplete packages. Then test

pspp --version

This should look like this

pool8021x172-7:~ fritz$ pspp --version
pspp (GNU PSPP) 0.10.1-geba86b

You should be able to start pspp with gui from the terminal with

psppire

To see if you have any previous version installed somewhere, you could try

which pspp

pool8021x172-7:~ fritz$ which pspp
/opt/local/bin/pspp
pool8021x172-7:~ fritz$ 

This shows you that pspp is installed in /opt/local/bin where it is supposed to 
be. pspp will not be visible in the
„Program“ folder where programs are usually installed. So you have to start 
pspp from the terminal.
