My question is more about the basic usage of latex. As a latex user, I
don't want to call yum 40 times just to compile my .tex file.

If it is not easy  (well, why is it difficult?) to make latex launch
yum to install dependencies, maybe we can ship a script to generate
the RPM dependencies, similar to yum-builddep.
