Public bug reported:

the latex package "glosssaries" needs a file called "glosssaries.sty" but the 
system only provides a file called "glossaries.sty" (one file has 'sss', while 
the other one has 'ss'). I highly suspect that the file name contains a typo, 
resulting in users being unable to use the glossaries latex package.

Minimal (not) working example:

```tex
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{glosssaries}
\makeglossaries
\newglossaryentry{latex}
{
        name=latex,
        description={Is a mark up language specially suited for
scientific documents}
}

\begin{document}
foo bar qux \Gls{latex}
\end{document}
```

See that the latex "compiler does not find the file (with 'sss'):
```bash
$ pdflatex master.tex
This is pdfTeX, Version 3.141592653-2.6-1.40.22 (TeX Live 2022/dev/Debian) 
(preloaded format=pdflatex)

For a workaround, users can manually specify the filename when being
asked as "glossaries.tex". Clearly the glossaries package has a typo in
the dependency. Note that "glossaries.sty" is part of the texlive-latex-
extra package.
