Howdy,
It may be that the CLI option was not checked when the i-installer
did the TeX Configuration step. The easiest way around this is to re-
run the Configuration stage of the TeX i-package. Do an `Expert'
install and uncheck everything except but the CLI option. That will
have the proper changes made to /etc/profile, etc., so that the
proper paths are followed.
By the way, if the Ghostscript i-package is installed I think /usr/
local/bin/ should also be part of the $PATH. Is that there?
Good Luck,
