You can search for packages containing a file: $ dpkg -S sffms.cls texlive-latex-extra: /usr/share/texmf-texlive/tex/latex/sffms/sffms.cls So you need to install texlive-latex-extra: # apt-get install texlive-latex-extra You'll probably need to be root for that (or use the graphical thingie that will ask for your password).
