After switched to use Linux, I use vim-latex to extand vim for LaTeX editing. However, sometimes I would encounter errors like package not found. I thought that is because vim-latex supports limited packages (under ~/.vim/ftplugin/latex-suite/packages/), but actually vim-latex is just the plugin to turn vim into a LaTeX editor, while the complier behind it is something else, for example TeX Live.
TeX Live has its own package manager called tlmgr. This post documents some issues I had to install absent package for TeX Live.
