TeX under Fedora is frankly a joke these days :-( I don't know if there's currently a maintainer. Certainly no one's responding to critical bug reports. ConTeXt is literally unusable out of the box (as in, it doesn't run at all), which make typesetting my books problematic. I'm currently editing them on my box, and then typesetting them on my girlfriend's box, which is running an older version of Fedora, which does at least have a working texexec.
There are other FOSS options for this, you know. If you don't mind migrating from a markup language to a GUI, you might consider Scribus. I've had good luck with it on small projects, and I know that there are professionals out there using it for magazines and books.
