When executing pdflatex I get "File mymath.sty" not found.
I did
sudo apt update
sudo apt install opencv-doc
and
sudo mktexlsr
but the problem remains. How can I get my TeX 3.14159265 (TeX Live 2017/Debian) in ubuntu 18.04 to use this package? Looking at similar cases #43108 and #102817 in tex.stackexchange did not help me.
The file mymath.sty is existing in the following folder. Do I have to do something "by hand"?
./usr/share/doc/opencv-doc/html/mymath.sty
Problem solved by moving file mymath.sty from /usr/share/doc/opencv-doc/html/mymath.sty to /usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/tex/latex/mymath (after creating the subfolder mymath) and running sudo mktexlsr.
mymath? The point is that I've installed opencv-doc since this is mentioned on https://packages.ubuntu.com/ when searching for mymath. But after this the package is not being recognized.

tex-dist. This question Local texmf tree vs. TEXINPUTS gives some useful information, but is directed to Windows. This answer is specific to *nix.

\texmflocal\tex\latex.sudo mktexlsr? (Sorry from a beginner.)\texmflocal(orlocaltexmf, I'm not sure) in which one has to install all additions to the distribution that can be available to all users of your computer. The contents of this directory has to respect the t.d.s. structure.amsmath.styis located here/usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/tex/latex/amsmath/usr/local/texlive/2017/. Does your system feature a directory called/usr/local/texlive/texmf-local?
