First you must be root ! We want to install the package My_package. Create a directory My_package and copy all style files in:
sudo mkdir /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/My_package
sudo cp My_package.sty /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/My_package
Update your database with
texhash
or
mktexlsr
In your latex file, add
\usepackage{My_package}
Enjoy !!!
