LaTeX error related to tcolorbox.sty not found

Question

I have a problem with LaTeX whenever I try to download the file in PDF. When I try to do that, it gives me the following error:

! LaTeX Error: File `tcolorb         


        

Answer 1

After installing tcolorbox using LaTex's package manager tlmgr, I was getting similar errors for other dependencies. The solution below worked for me on Ubuntu 18.04 (64 bit) at the terminal:

tlmgr update --all --self
tlmgr install tcolorbox
tlmgr install pgf
tlmgr install xcolor
tlmgr install environ
tlmgr install trimspaces
tlmgr install mathpazo
tlmgr install parskip
tlmgr install adjustbox
tlmgr install collectbox
tlmgr install eurosym
tlmgr install ecs
tlmgr install ucs
tlmgr install enumitem
tlmgr install ulem
tlmgr install mathrsfs
tlmgr install jknapltx rsfs
sudo tlmgr install collection-fontsrecommended

Also, rendering the document to PDF using the "export notebook as" option didn't work for me. I did it at the command line: jupyter nbconvert --to pdf my_document.ipynb. You may need to install nbconvert if you don't have it.

If missing other dependencies, keep running tlmgr install with the missing dependencies until it works. I haven't figured out yet to which packages those dependencies belong, so my apologies for the dirty fix.

Answer 2

In addition to Oscar's answer, I also had to run:

sudo tlmgr install collection-fontsrecommended

and it worked

Answer 3

Arch/Manjaro users, get the tllocalmgr and follow Oscar's answer

    yay -S tllocalmgr-git
    tllocalmgr update --all --self
    tllocalmgr install <package_name>
    sudo texhash
