The problem on Fedora systems is that texi2dvi and texi2pdf are no longer
available  in the distribution starting with Fedora 14.  And, the 
texlive packages
from CTAN no longer provide them.  So, they have to be provided by hand.
Some users have complained to CTAN, but
the texlive providers stated that since they do not use these scripts, they
will no longer distribute them.

Does anyone know a better way around this problem?
