Hi Gene, This is not a solution to your question, but you could file a bugzilla request to update texlive. Fedora maintainers are fabulous about fixing and updating things usually. One quick alternative for you is to drag in the TeXlive and then recompile and reinstall TeXlive 2009. But the RFE would perhaps be best and help several others at the same time by giving them an updated TeXlive system. Of course, you could download the binary directly from the R website also.
