Thanks for your response.
That did the trick.

Unfortunately when I try to LaTeX (or pdfLaTeX) a file I get the error
--------------------------
This is pdfTeX, Version 3.1415926-2.4-1.40.13 (TeX Live 2012)
 restricted \write18 enabled.

kpathsea: Running mktexfmt latex.fmt
I can't find the format file `latex.fmt'!
[tim@blanche Problems]$ pdflatex Problems-08

[tim@blanche Problems]$ sudo yum install tex-latex

Package 1:tex-latex-svn23639-1.noarch already installed and latest version
Nothing to do

Should these .fmt files be part of the latest Fedora TeXlive distribution?
