It might be that I my default shell set to zsh. Could you try changing
your shell (using chsh) to zsh and then testing the value of $PATH after
doing sage -sh?

It seems that when I set my default shell to bash, the $PATH variable is
set correctly in sage -sh.

Thanks,

That could be due to someone setting a path with something like

export PATH=/a/b/c:/d/e/f etc

when it is more portable to use

PATH=/a/b/c:/d/e/f etc
export PATH

I've seen a number of bits of Sage where this is done, and perhaps the zsh shell does not like it.
