This is my experience. If you are a serious tex user, and disk space isn't an issue, it's much more convenient to just install TeXLive completely, rather than to have to know which packages are grouped into which rpm. It's far more convenient than using the Fedora rpms. And more uptodate. And TeXLive 2009 is supposed to be just days away from release, with a decent updater.
