If you search the MacPorts available ports list for ipdb, you'll find that there are several there, one for each MacPorts supported version of Python. Be aware that the MacPorts projects is deprecating older versions of Python so you should choose either the Python 2.7 or 3.4 version. For example:

sudo port install py34-ipdb

You could also use the command line interface to search:

$ port search ipdb
