Comment(by jhpalmieri):
First of all, I think path_helper might be working properly. On my
machine, the documentation says that it adds paths found in the files in
/etc/paths.d/, which on my machine just adds `/usr/texbin` and
`/usr/X11/bin`. In particular, I think that /usr/bin, etc. are already at
the start of the path before path_helper is run.
Second, I don't see this problem, but maybe I'm not doing things right.
My default shell is bash, but if I do
{{{
$ zsh
jpalmieri538% sage -sh
Starting subshell with Sage environment variables set.
Be sure to exit when you are done and do not do anything
with other copies of Sage!
Bypassing shell configuration files ...
SAGE_ROOT=/Applications/sage
(sage subshell) jpalmieri538:~ palmieri$ echo $PATH
/Applications/sage/local/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/bin:/Applications/sage:/Applications/sage/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/texbin:/usr/X11/bin:/Users/palmieri/bin:/Applications/sage
SAGE_ROOT=/Applications/sage
}}}
(Also, are you sure that this has to do with zsh? Your first line says
{{{bash-3.2$}}}.)
To troubleshoot this, try applying this patch to sage-sage in
SAGE_ROOT/local/bin:
{{{
#!diff
diff -r e7a865848991 sage-sage
--- a/sage-sage
+++ b/sage-sage
@@ -476,6 +476,7 @@ if [ "$1" = '-sh' -o "$1" = '--sh' ]; t
SHELL_NAME=`basename $SHELL`
echo "Bypassing shell configuration files ..."
echo
+ echo "PATH is set to $PATH"
# We must start a new shell with no .profile or .bashrc files
# processed, so that we know our path is correct
PS1="SAGE_ROOT=${SAGE_ROOT}\n(sage subshell) \h:\W \u\$ "
}}}
Then it will print the PATH before it even starts the new shell.
