package texlive, Version : 20180414 Release : 19.el8 Architecture : x86_64 does not comprise pgfplots, which is very useful for creating special diagrams. Even though there is a workaround by manually installing it from source http://mirrors.ctan.org/graphics/pgf/contrib/pgfplots.zip, it would be preferred to receive it directly from Red Hat, making installation and updates much easier.
It's the intention to keep texlive in 8 small, many texlive extensions are therefore included in texlive-extention in epel8. If someone needs more texlive extensions, please open the bug in texlive-extension in epel and make a request. I'm working on update of texlive-extension-20180414-6.epel8 which includes the texlive-pgfplots. The update should be available soon from epel8 repo.
