Does anyone know if there is a package containing biblatex.sty on any

I have found it simplest to use the official TexLive install and update
using tlmgr. The fedora repo's have been lagging behind quite a bit for
some time now and until they catch up it may make sense to just use the
official versions. YMMV.

Indeed this is the only wise way to proceed since the texlive
distribution for fedora is too buggy (look at my previous posts on the
topic) but you have to be ready to renounce to some packages (such as R,
ktikz and a2ps) which rely on the texlive fedora distribution and yum
refuse to install if you don't install it.

I'm trying to write a fake package to fool yum but still 6 provides need
to be satisfied in order to get yum cope with the native texlive
installation. Attached the spec for the fake rpm if you find what it is
missing please let me know.
