Non-trivial answer, in any of a number of directories listed somewhere. It's similar to $PATH, but can also work recursively (trailing double-slash). kpsewhich -show-path=.tex shows the currently active path for .tex, .sty, .cls etc files. The "!!" means to ignore the ls-lR index file. Using the index file means that the directory tree will not be searched, only the index file is consulted (potentially bad trap for the unweary). Your best option probably is to simply copy it into the current directory, which is in all default paths.
