@andrea.dellamico@isti.cnr.it one of the two links in my previous comment. Are them packages?

Yes, but the part that I did not understand is if it's part of some other collection. There's no stand alone debian package.

If you are able to test a compilation, I'm trying to install some deb packages that are referenced: texlive-bibtex-extra, biblatex-dw, texlive-publishers

Well, I installed the full texlive distribution. Now everything packaged and latex related is installed. @luca.frosini@isti.cnr.it if you can test let me know the results.

It seems not working as I expected.

Just adding

\usepackage{apacite}

The compilation provides a lot of errors.

Reading the documentation I have the felling that is not just a matter of using a package but I should completely change the document class.

Anyway, textlive is very useful for a lot of other packages I need, such as the support of italian language in babel which i confirm that now work. Thanks a lot.

I'm going to close the ticket.
