I also made some requests like this in the past. But, why is still not provided? The reason is simple: lack of maintainers to handle the transition.
Currently, texlive migration is being blocked by some bugs that can be seen in:

Also, Texlive needs an active maintainer to take care of it and, for now, nobody has volunteered to do it.
Then, if you want to contribute on that task, maybe you should start by reading the following thread:

This was a good reason to move away from Mandriva and use openSUSE.
