Yeah, I remember the script started using some meta-packages for LaTeX.
This had to change a couple of times because distros that have dozens of
packages for it were not installing everything on their meta packages.
So, the packages install but they don't run as they depend on other
non-installed packages.

That's basically why I added a list of *.sty inside the script and started
using kpsewhich to double-check if all dependencies are there.
