I don't know if there is more stuff included in the FC2 packages, but I
doubt it.

Your best bet is to get any other packages you need from www.ctan.org or a
mirror and install them in an appropriate subdirectory of
/usr/local/share/texmf/.  Then run texconfig (as root) and select REHASH.
The new packages will then be available as if they had been included in
the original distro, but they won't get mixed up with the distro files.
