According to packages.ubuntu.com, the file
    /usr/share/texmf-texlive/tex/latex/oberdiek/kvoptions.sty
exists in package texlive-latex-recommended.

Would you please install texlive-latex-recommended and see if it solves
your problem?

Thanks,

According to package.ubuntu.com only the 2007-5 version of this package has kvoptions.sty and it's only in gutsy.
But i don't have that file:

drzwi@Baltazar:~$ dpkg -S texlive-latex-recommended | grep kvoptions
texlive-latex-recommended: /usr/share/doc/texlive-latex-recommended/latex/oberdiek/kvoptions.pdf
drzwi@Baltazar:~$ dpkg -l | grep texlive-latex-recommended
ii texlive-latex-recommended 2007-5 TeX Live: LaTeX recommended packages
drzwi@Baltazar:~$

I tried to reinstall that but anything changed.

In my fresh hardy installation the LaTeX package hyperref (texlive-latex-base) depends on kvoptions.sty (texlive-latex-recommended). Could you please resolve the dependency problem (e.g. move kvoptions.sty to texlive-latex-base)?

Thanks,

Simon

Update:
this problem seems to have been partially-solved, as of today, using hardy with latest updates (2008-09-08). Now installing texlive-latex-recommended properly installs the kvoptions package and resolves the "missing kvoptions.sty" problem.

a default installation of texlive, though, still has this missing dependency, so it seems that for complete resolution of this problem, this package needs to be moved to texlive-latex-base.

I can confirm that in Kubuntu 8.10 still has this bug: when installing texlive-latex-base kvoptions is missing. This should be included in the base install IMHO.

Please note that installing texlive-latex-recommended (and its dependencies on top texlive-latex-base) implies 84 Mb of space usage in new packages.

Confirmed. Ubuntu 8.10 still has the bug. Installing texlive-latex-recommended doesn't solve the problem.

Would surprise me ...

$ dlocate kvoptions.sty
texlive-latex-recommended: /usr/share/texmf-texlive/tex/latex/oberdiek/kvoptions.sty
$

So that file is in texlive-latex-recommended.

How do you come to the conclusion that installing
texlive-latex-recommended does not help.

Best wishes

Norbert
