I tried it all again and could restore the transaction, but got the same error.

First I installed the dependencies:
$ sudo yum install python-pygments t1utils ghostscript-devel

Then I set enabled to 0 in the fedora repos:
$ sudo nano /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora.repo
$ sudo nano /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-updates.repo
$ sudo nano /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-updates-testing.repo

Now I can run the installation past the transaction check:
$ sudo yum install texlive-*

Will report when this is done.
