[R-SIG-Mac] latex: command not found

[cstrato]

Dear all

When running "R CMD check" on my Intel-Mac, I get always the line:
* checking for working latex ...sh: line 1: latex: command not found

So I downloaded the i-Installer II and installed gwTeX as administrator.

As user I put the directory  /usr/texbin  in ".bashrc":
export PATH=usr/texbin:$PATH

When I do "echo $PATH" I get:
/Volumes/CoreData/ROOT/root/bin:usr/texbin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/X11R6/bin

So the correct path to "tex", "latex" and "texi2dvi" is now included.

However, I still get the following output of R CMD check:
* checking for working latex ...sh: line 1: latex: command not found
 NO

--- running texi2dvi on vignettes
You don't have a working TeX binary (tex) installed anywhere in
your PATH, and texi2dvi cannot proceed without one.  If you want to use
this script, you'll need to install TeX (if you don't have it) or change
your PATH or TEX environment variable (if you do).  See the --help
output for more details.
For information about obtaining TeX, please see http://www.tug.org.  If
you happen to be using Debian, you can get it with this command:
  apt-get install tetex-bin
Error in texi2dvi(file = bft, pdf = TRUE, clean = FALSE, quiet = TRUE) :

Do I still miss something?

Thank you in advance
Best regards
