I doubt whether this is worth the effort. IIRC, SuSE has split teTeX
into several rpms, I'd be surprised if RH hadn't done the same.
Debian/Ubunut/... packages are also split, as are the Debian TeXLive
packages.
Therefore I think we should rather try to come up with a reasonable set
of collections for creating rpms. Probably also some rearrangements
between the collections are necessary; for example Norbert and Ralf are
currently collecting inconsistencies of font installation in the various
collections.
Regards, Frank
