ACK. Did you adopt the package structur of upstream (tlpm)? How do they
deal with this problem?

Recommend, maybe add a note after acronym in the long description. Or why
not put acronym.sty in -humanities?
What about improving the error message? Do you see a way that the message
can look like:
LaTeX Error: File `suffix.sty' not found.
The File `suffix.sty' is part of the Debian package texlive-humanities.
I don't know if the file resolver is in a central point where you can
place these tons of informations.
What about a (simple) check for dependencies: Extract from every style
file the \RequirePackage and check which Debian packages satisfy it.
Bye, Jörg.
