suppress openscad message and hanging process

See original GitHub issue

I see the following log message when I import trimesh.

searching for scad in: PATH IN MY VIRTUAL ENVIRONMENT...

This also appears to spawn a process with a GUI (when run on macOS this is very conspicuous due to a dock icon). I’ve had some difficulty tracing down the spawned process with a ps -ef | grep call, but I assume it relates to scad. Is there a way to suppress either one of these behaviors without much hassle?

Ah, maybe try importing our soft dependencies one by one at the REPL to see if it’s something upstream or us:

I’m going to close this one out. Yes, this behavior is present, but I’m not seeing any adverse effects like hung processes that are chewing up cycles. It’s just odd.
