el6 is "tainted" in the same way as fc15 etc. are: noarch packages are
built and tagged for fc16, and only "binary" packages are rebuilt
specifically for the other release tags. (This is confusing, yes, but
saves space until texlive goes into fedora proper.)

yumdownloader --source texlive-latex-bin-bin
No source RPM found for
texlive-latex-bin-bin-2011-3.20111207_r24786.svn14050.fc16.noarch
Nothing to download

Anyways, they are "meta-srpm"s in the sense that they are generated from
the tl tree, even the spec is generated from tl metadata.

Cheers
Michael
