[Bug 67465] EPS rendering: locating pstoedit on Mac a problem

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=67465

--- Comment #11 from Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi> ---
I think we are just asking for trouble if we start running random 3rd-party
binaries from /usr/local/bin  (which normally does not even exist on a Mac) (or
even /opt/local/bin, which probably only a dozen Mac users in the world even
have).

Such random behaviour might be what Linux users expect, but is not proper on a
Mac.

Either we provide the EPS export functionality using code bundled with
LibreOffice, or use system-provided APIs for the functionality (there might
well be such, at least the normal print dialog on OS X has a "Save as
PostScript" choice in addition to "Save as PDF"). Or then we shouldn't even
pretend to have such functionality.

Of course, if LibreOffice would use the normal print dialog on OS X it would
have PDF and PostScript export there already...
