Description of problem: On updating, the package asymptote is now gone for rawhide (at least), replaced by texlive-asymptote. But those are only a bunch of noarch packages (including the manpages for asy asn xasy!) but no binaries. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): texlive-asymptote-2011-0.1.2.02.svn19472.fc14.noarch How reproducible: Always... Steps to Reproduce: 1. asy 2. 3. Actual results: Program not found Expected results: Additional info:
The problem is that TeX Live upstream doesn't ship asymptote in its sources. On the other hand it contains all the noarch bits. So I'm not quite sure what are upstream intentions. Maybe we need to ask.

Indeed. At least I removed the Obsoletes/Provides so that the stock Fedora asymptote will not be obsoleted by the broken TL2010/TL2011 one for now. This change will occur in the next repo update.
Asymptote is now completely removed from TeX Live 2012 in rawhide as there is separate asymptote package in Fedora already. Maybe I will talk to asymptote maintainer and propose him to move to TeX Live's variant of asymptote also in Fedora.
