I found that when trying to access LATeX (MacTeX) calls in a Sage notebook 
via MatPlotLib or directly Sage would report that it could not find some 
TeX function.  It appears that the PATH variable being used by the Sage app 
is pointing to /usr/texbin, not /Library/TeX/texbin.  As a workaround I 
modified src/mac-app/start-sage.sh and added:

if test -d /Library/TeX/texbin

then

export PATH=$PATH:/Library/TeX/texbin

fi


After rebuilding the Sage app dmg, Sage works as expected when accessing 
TeX calls.


There may be a better way, but I could not find one searching through the 
Sage source.


I am not sure how proceed with getting this corrected so users do not have 
the manually edit the start-sage.sh file.


Regards,


Mike
