For some reasons, emacs-app does not find my latex installation
(Mactex, bin files are located in /usr/texbin).
I installed emacs-app together with the auctex package (using
+emacs_app +mactex variants)
When I run pdflatex via the command menu, I only got the message

[...]
"\input" paper.tex''
/bin/sh: pdflatex: command not found
[...]
indicating that pdflatex was not found. But the /usr/texbin is added
to my PATH variable and I added it as well to the exec-path of emacs.
Exec-path is irrelevant here, as it is sh that can't find pdflatex,
not emacs. PATH is relevant, however. Please run

M-x getenv<RET>  PATH<RET>

in emacs and check again that /usr/texbin is in there. If not, maybe
try (setenv "PATH" (concat "/usr/texbin:" (getenv "PATH"))) ?

Yes, that was an issue, thanks for the hint! Checked it and it did not contain the relevant paths. So I added
(setq exec-path (append exec-path '("/usr/texbin/")))
(setq exec-path (append exec-path '("/opt/local/bin"))) because pdf2dsc could not be found (not startet in sh)
(setenv "PATH" (concat "/opt/local/bin:" (getenv "PATH"))) because of gs
(setenv "PATH" (concat "/usr/texbin:" (getenv "PATH"))) because of latex and pdflatex

But somehow it seems strange me that I have to explicitly add them, isn't?

Nevertheless I don't get preview to run, it just display the typical stop signs.
No error message was produced.  The last snippet is

----%-------
Output written on paper.pdf (90 pages, 736830 bytes).
Transcript written on paper.log.
----%-------
^^^^^^^^^ This file contains the formula snippets to be loaded into emacs.
and the last lines:

So it seems there goes something wrong during the last steps...
Has anybody else encounter the same problem? And thanks for your patience!
