[OS X TeX] Install From Disk

I’ve had a working TeX distribution on my Mac for a while.   I joined Tug and received a DVD full of Tex goodies (TeX Collection 2018).  I used the DVD to upgrade my Linux box with Tex live and it worked just fine.  However, when I used the same method to upgrade my Mac, it kind of fails.   I can run latex from the command line but none of the tools, BibDesk, TeX Live Utility or TeXShop work.   That it works from the command line tells me I have the path correct.  

Now I see some nonsense about /Library/TeX and all kind of links that seem to go nowhere.

How do I get these tools to use the new TeX installed?  The location of the new installation is /usr/local/texlive/2018/bin/x86_64-darwin/.  

All help appreciated.
