I'm afraid I can't help you myself, as I'm not a Mac user...

Hopefully somebody else will be able to assist you.

Hi, I packaged the DMG for the Mac.  I haven't tested LaTeX support, so I'm not sure if it's possible/easy to get LaTeX working with the DMG version or not.  Is it possible for you to install from source?

• Having installed MacTex.pkg from the LaTex site, I have rebooted.
  

• Postings I have found from 2009 refer to changing an environment variable (PATH). I note that in OSX these are handled through launchctrl?
  

• Latex and dvipng seem to execute OK from the terminal command line.

Did you try installing from source or are you using the packaged version?  I doubt the packaged version will play nicely, since it has its own python interpreter bundled inside; you will likely need to install all of mnemosyne's dependencies from source to get this to work.
