If you would like that to change, I suggest putting a feature request in
the RedHat bugzilla. It looks like texlive is already in fedora, so
hopefully it will make it into a future RedHat release. I know this
won't help now, but it may help in the long term.

If you can't find texlive in DAG or EPEL, then you might try rebuilding
the fedora rpms.
