I really hope the next mantainer can manage a 14 mb spec file :)
In Mandriva I did a work very similar to current Fedora texlive, but I did
create almost 3k packages so that could update only was really required;
it should be possible to live with around 1.6k packages, but I preferred
to let upstream handle dependencies, and match 1 to 1 upstream
packages (
http://mirrors.ctan.org/systems/texlive/tlnet/archive). But,
I am still to start updating it again, now in OpenMandriva, was just left
in a stable state as of like 6 months ago...
But something like that would not be viable in Fedora, if needing a
review request and approval for every small package...
