Where do I place my own .sty files, to make them available to all my .tex files?

I've used Kile 2.1 under Ubuntu. To manually install a package, I did the following:

  1. Copy package into gedit and save as packagename.sty

  2. Put package in same named folder

  3. Copy folder to /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex

  4. Type in terminal

    $sudo mktexlsr

...and that is it!

Now I (try to) use Kile 2.1 under Linux Mint 12 and the described procedure doesn't make any result. I'm bit confused, because Ubuntu and Mint are very similar distros. What do I need to do for manually installing a package in Linux Mint 12?

    You problem is not related to Kile. It is a distribution problem. Most likely you are using TexLive. If you installed TexLive from it's homepage it will have a package manager 'tlmgr' otherwise you can try to sudo texhash – Martin H Jan 06 '12 at 20:03
