General ⇒ mathtools | Manual Installation

[jaybz]

I'm trying to install the mathtools package on Ubuntu 11.10.

1. Downloaded the mh bundle from CTAN
2. Extracted it.
3. Created the .sty files from the command line with: tex filename.dtx
4. Created directories for each package in: /usr/share/texmf-texlive/tex/latex
5. Moved each .sty file to their respective directories.

When I try to use mathtools in either TeXmaker or Gummi I get the error:

Code: Select all

1
! LaTeX Error: File `mathtools.sty' not found.

By the way, it is better to use the »Code« button for longer code blocks. The »LaTeX« button is supposed to format short in-line LaTeX code.
