Hi,
I can't really affirm that lmgr is missing in mageia2 since I've manually installed Texlive from the iso image found on their site.
But I can tell that in the files lists of the rpm packages there is no tlmgr files.

This message is a reminder that Mageia 1 is nearing its end of life. 
In approximately 25 days from now, Mageia will stop maintaining and issuing 
updates for Mageia 1. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX (EOL) if it 
remains open with a Mageia 'version' of '1'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to 
fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later 
Mageia version prior to Mageia 1's end of life.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not 
be able to fix it before Mageia 1 is end of life.  If you would still like to see 
this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Mageia, 
you are encouraged to click on "Version" and change it against that version 
of Mageia.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, 
sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Mageia 
release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.

Hi,
Since the problem is still present on mageia2 (tlmgr not present in the files list of the rpm package), I've changed the version.

Version: 1 => 2

Still broken as of Mageia 3.

CC: (none) => danielosmari
Version: 2 => 3
Source RPM: texlive-texmf-20100722-14.mga1 => texlive-texmf-20120701-4.mga3
Severity: normal => major

Yes. I will fix that. Thanks for the report.

Hi, everyone.
I'm using mageia 4.
I installed texlive using the rpm, and also the version from texlive website, so I can compare both installation:

texlive from the rpm is installed in:
/usr/share/texmf-dist/scripts/texlive/

the version from the website is there:
/usr/local/texlive/

Using the installation from the texlive web site I managed to lauch the tlmgr gui (graphical interface), but not from the rpm installation.
 
The files tlmgr.py and tlmgrgui.pl are effectively provided in the rpm.

The installation from the texlive web site create this link from tlgrm to tlmgr.pl
/usr/local/texlive/2013/bin/x86_64-linux/tlmgr -> ../../texmf-dist/scripts/texlive/tlmgr.pl*

This link is not created by the rpm installation.
If I try to launch the graphical version of tlmgr.py :
/usr/share/texmf-dist/scripts/texlive/tlmgr.pl gui
I got this error message:
Can't locate tlmgrgui.pl in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/share/texmf-dist/scripts/texlive/../../texmf-dist/scripts/texlive /usr/share/texmf-dist/scripts/texlive/../../tlpkg /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.18.1/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.18.1 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.18.1/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.18.1 /usr/lib/perl5/5.18.1/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/5.18.1 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.18.1 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.18.1/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.18.1 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.18.1/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.16.2 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.16.2 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl .) at /usr/share/texmf-dist/scripts/texlive/tlmgr.pl line 4464.

But the  tlmgrgui.pl exist in  /usr/share/texmf-dist/scripts/texlive/

ll /usr/share/texmf-dist/scripts/texlive/tlmgrgui.pl 
-rwxr--r-- 1 root root 91621 mai   10  2013 /usr/share/texmf-dist/scripts/texlive/tlmgrgui.pl


I hope my report may help.

I can ad that, I never managed to make tlmgr gui from the rpm working, I'm trying to use it since mandriva 2009.
So if someone manage to fix this issue I will be very happy.

Thanks for your interest in texlive. I'm trying to get it fixed, but texlive package manager is a pain. Any help welcome.

Mageia 4 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-09-19. It is is no longer 
maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug 
fix updates.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to 
fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later 
Mageia version.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we weren't 
able to fix it before Mageia 4's end of life. If you are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Mageia, you are encouraged to click on "Version" and 
change it against that version of Mageia. If it's valid in several versions, 
select the highest and add MGAxTOO in whiteboard for each other valid release.
Example: it's valid in cauldron and Mageia 5, set to cauldron and add MGA5TOO.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, 
sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Mageia 
release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.

As announced over a month ago, Mageia 4 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-09-19. It is is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates.

This issue may have been fixed in a later Mageia release, so, if you still see it and didn't already do so: please upgrade to Mageia 5 (or, if you read this much later than this is written: make sure you run a currently maintained Mageia version)

If you are able to reproduce it against a maintained version of Mageia, you are encouraged to 
1. reopen this bug report, by changing the "Status" from "RESOLVED - OLD" to "REOPENED"
2. click on "Version" and change it against that version of Mageia. If you know it's valid in several versions, select the highest and add MGAxTOO in whiteboard for each other valid release.
Example: it's valid in cauldron and Mageia 5, set to cauldron and add MGA5TOO.
3. give as much relevant information as possible. If you're not an experienced bug reporter and have some time: please read this page:
https://wiki.mageia.org/en/How_to_report_a_bug_properly

If you see a similar issue, but are _not_sure_ it is the same, with the same cause, then please file a new bug report and mention this one in it (please include the bug number, too).
