Uh, I didn't even notice it was included. I had my tetex-beamer
installing to %{_datadir}/texmf/tex/latex/latex-beamer instead of
beamer, so didn't notice that beamer was already installed by default
(should have double-checked when I noticed that its dependencies are
already part of tetex-latex).

I was first shown Beamer by a friend who uses Fedora but installs his
own TeX (he uses some styles that apparently are not in by default,
and found it easier to do it that way) and I assumed Beamer was one of
them.

Sorry about that,
