I disagree. It is mad to have something monolithic when there are
different upstreams. The aim of texlive is to build a TeX distribution, 
the aim of fedora is to build a distribution too. So the texlive choices
are not necessarily right for fedora.

In the tex4ht case, the tetex-tex4ht package (I maintain) is much newer
than texlive (at least in rawhide).
