I would like to fix it, without updating Fedora 17 or texlive 

thanks, cheers

ps I just realized that I have:
/etc/yum.repos.d/texlive-f14.repo
------
[texlive]
name=TeX Live
baseurl=http://jnovy.fedorapeople.org/texlive/packages.f14/
enabled=1
metadata_expire=1d
gpgcheck=0

and 'yum update texlive' fails, with tons of error msgs.

Strangely enough, if I update to 
(from http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/TeXLive#TeX_Live_2012_2)

/etc/yum.repos.d/texlive-f17.repo
[texlive]
name=texlive
baseurl=http://jnovy.fedorapeople.org/texlive/2012/packages.f17/
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0

I get:
