Do you have
/usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/base/leqno.clo
/usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/base/leqno.sty
A proper teTeX installation should include these. I had once similar
error messages with imaxima, but the problem was with lacking write
permissions i.e. everything worked, if I used imaxima as root (and it
actually fixed the problem so that the lacking filer were created).
Try also running 'texhash'..
