Description Carl Michal 2020-02-06 14:29:13 UTC 
auto-multiple-choice-1.3.0-r1 uses the no longer supported perl pragma:
use encoding 'utf-8', which causes AMC to crash.

Simply commenting out the 
use encoding 'utf8'
line from the three files in /usr/lib/AMC/perl where it occurs seems to solve the problem.
