It's odd to have a architecture-specific directory (bin) under a
no-architecture one (/usr/share).
But why have you filed a question as a bug report? See the section
BUGS in the FAQ.
Simply, configure looks along your path for executables, so set the
path suitably when running configure: it captures the full paths of
the selected exectuables. E.g. I have
R_LATEXCMD=${R_LATEXCMD-${LATEX-'/usr/texbin/latex'}}
because I had /usr/texbin in my path when I configured R.

Can ./configure be made/told to look in
/usr/share/texmf/bin
instead of
/usr/bin or /usr/local/bin
for pdftex and pdflatex?
This saves me from creating symlinks, which, once there, create issues with
other programmes I am trying to compile.
Thanks
