There is nothing to fix here. PyX uses libkpathsea, and the version in fedora is older than the version in texlive. In fact, PyX works fine without libkpathsea, but better with, and the fedora package therefore requires it. PyX (the fedora package) needs to be rebuilt with the version in texlive, and the texlive repo maintainers probably don't want to carry depedendent packages. You have two options: A) Use a local PyX copy or svn checkout. PyX releases are not that frequent, but there is progress on the svn trunk from time to time. (install anywhere and "export PYTHONPATH=pyxdir:") B) Rebuild the PyX package: yumdownloader --source PyX and then rebuild.
