What is the most easy way to install missing LaTeX packages?

  • 772

I am using the Eclipse Plug-in TeXlipse and would like to know how I can install LaTeX packages automatically.

It is quite annoying to download and install a packages, build the document to wait for the next missing package, install that and repeat that process until pdfLaTeX is happy.

  1. Metapackage pulling in all components of TeX Live

    sudo apt-get install texlive-full

    The TeX Live software distribution offers a complete TeX system. It encompasses programs for typesetting, previewing and printing of TeX documents in many different languages, and a large collection of TeX macros and font libraries. The distribution also includes extensive general documentation about TeX, as well as the documentation accompanying the included software packages.
