That being said, I must admit that I have MacTex installed on my machine.[[BR]] By having {{{/Library/TeX/texbin}}} earlier than {{{/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin}}} in my {{{PATH}}} variable, MacPorts no longer "hides" the MacTex LaTeX. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/51546#comment:1> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
