I installed the ubuntu package texlive-latex-extra which contains a latex package "koma-moderncvclassic".

However, if I compile a document

\documentclass{scrartcl}
\usepackage[ngerman]{babel}
\usepackage[myblue]{koma-moderncvclassic}
\begin{document}
\end{document}

pdflatex will not find it

! LaTeX Error: File `koma-moderncvclassic.sty' not found.

    Please don't use Ubuntu's version of TeX Live, it's TL 2009 and heavily outdated. See How to install “vanilla” TeXLive on Debian or Ubuntu? for a proper install. Just don't mind the extra 2GB of space and keep the Ubuntu packages to satisfy the (IMHO artificial) dependencies. Note that TL 2012 just came out this weekend! – Martin Scharrer Jul 11 '12 at 08:42
  • Ubuntu 12.10 (Quantal Quetzal) has TeXLive 2012 –  Jul 11 '12 at 08:58
  • What are you trying to achieve? There is a document class called moderncv which is used by calling \documentclass{moderncv}. Is this what you want? – Seamus Jul 11 '12 at 09:01
  • Last time i installed vanilla Texlive I ran into trouble when I updated Ubuntu. If indeed 12.10 will finally have an updated Texlive pack ill just wit till oktober. @Seamus I took a template that was set up like that... maybe that was outdated too. thanks anyways. – IARI Jul 11 '12 at 09:43

    I simply downloaded the whole package from ctan and used the template from the package, so it works for now. – IARI Jul 11 '12 at 10:00
  • @MartinScharrer No need to keep the Ubuntu TeXLive packages to satisfy TeX dependencies; you can instead use equivs to tell the Ubuntu / Debian package manager to consider certain dependencies as fulfilled. See the paragraph on TUG about Integrating vanilla TeX Live with Debian or my answer to a similar question here on StackExchange. – Xavier Jul 15 '12 at 13:14
  • @Xavier: I know about this, but it didn't fully work for me and wasn't trivial, too. I just mentioned the simplest way to do it, so that it can also be done by beginners. – Martin Scharrer Jul 15 '12 at 15:15
  • @Herbert: A TeX Live 2012 which will never be updated ... :-( Or will it now include tlmgr? – Martin Scharrer Jul 15 '12 at 15:16
