Hi,

are you referring to the fact that pdflatex is not in the shell PATH variable? The upgrade will have removed the file /etc/paths.d/TeX
(the Lion upgrader did that too, if memory serves).  You'll have to recreate it. In  a Terminal session:

$ echo "/usr/texbin" > TeX
$ sudo cp TeX /etc/paths.d/

HTH,
