This is on a fresh install, after installing all the prerequisites on the wiki.

Maybe the wiki page should be refactored but if you scroll down to this paragraph.
texlive-latex-recommended should provide this functionality.

Otherwise maybe replacing lmodern with texlive-fonts-recommended would fix this (should be tested).

[brson]

I have texlive-fonts-recommended installed, along with everything else the wiki says.

[adrientetar]

Can you try with texlive-latex-extra also?

[brson]

texlive-latex-extra does not help

[nekomatu]

Please try install package texlive-fonts-recommended
Maybe relate issue

This issue has been silent for a long time. If you use Ubuntu, and are seeing this, and isntalling texlive-fonts-recommended doesn't work, please leave a comment, but until then, I'm giving this a close.

[braverock]

I had texlive-latex-recommended installed already, but needed to install

sudo apt-get install texlive-latex-extra texlive-fonts-recommended texlive-fonts-extra

to get this error to go away. All good now.

I can confirm that texlive-latex-recommended was not sufficient, and that:

sudo apt install texlive-fonts-recommended

was needed.
