I was trying to compile a document which includes the package multiaudience. Unfortunately, it seems that the version of TeX Live which I have installed is too old. I can tell from the multiaudience documentation that v1.02 was released on the date 2015/08/02. The output of running pdflatex shows that my LaTeX2e version is dated 2015/01/01.

Here is a MWE.

\documentclass{beamer}

\usepackage{multiaudience}

\begin{document}

\begin{frame}{Student slide 1}
blah blah blah
\end{frame}

\end{document}

And here is the output from compiling it the document.

$ pdflatex main
This is pdfTeX, Version 3.14159265-2.6-1.40.16 (TeX Live 2015 (preloaded format=pdflatex)
restricted \write18 enabled.
entering extended mode
(./main.tex
LaTeX2e <2015/01/01> patch level 2
Babel <3.9l> and hyphenation patterns for 79 languages loaded.
...
! LaTeX Error: File `multiaudience.sty' not found.

Type X to quit or <RETURN> to proceed,
or enter new name. (Default extension: sty)

Is there a way to update my TeX Live packages?

tlmgr update --self --all will update first TeX Live Manager and then all packages. – Torbjørn T. Oct 19 '15 at 14:35
You may have to install it, tlmgr install multiaudience. – Torbjørn T. Oct 19 '15 at 14:36
@TorbjørnT. This works for me. Do you want to post this as an answer? – I Like to Code Oct 19 '15 at 14:41

See How do I update my TeX distribution? and How do I install an individual package on a Linux system? – Torbjørn T. Oct 19 '15 at 14:41
Nope, duplicate of one of the above. – Torbjørn T. Oct 19 '15 at 14:41
