Sagemath is checking whether TeX executables, such as pdflatex and kpsewhich, are present in PATH. Thus, if your PATH has the non-standard install of TeXLive before the standard one in your PATH, it will pick it instead of the standard one. You could also build texinfo from source using this non-standard install in a similar way, I think.
