Replying to [comment:7 leif]:
> Julien, I'm not sure whether you're aware of that, but your patch
changes in at least ''some'' situations the ''fully intentional''
behavior.
>
> For example, a couple of Sage components / programs are ''optional'',
like e.g. `kash` or `Macaulay2`, and it is '''not''' intended to run a
system-wide / non-Sage version of `kash` (that might be found along
`PATH`) if one types `sage --kash`. (Although I admit that the current
response in case Sage's version ''isn't'' installed -- ''"File not
found"'' -- is quite odd, i.e., not very user-friendly.)
I think this still needs an answer.
