  1. The texlive-generic-recommended package was presented in Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (bionic). Its source package is named texlive-base.

    Depending on your needs you can install one of the following package:

    • texlive-fonts-recommended - TeX Live: Recommended fonts
    • texlive-fonts-recommended-doc - TeX Live: Documentation files for texlive-fonts-recommended
    • texlive-latex-recommended - TeX Live: LaTeX recommended packages
    • texlive-latex-recommended-doc - TeX Live: Documentation files for texlive-latex-recommended

    Note: if you know the name of missed .sty, .tex, .bst files - you can use packages.ubuntu.com for file-search.
