You can search for packages containing a file:

$ dpkg -S sffms.cls
texlive-latex-extra: /usr/share/texmf-texlive/tex/latex/sffms/sffms.cls

So you need to install texlive-latex-extra:

# apt-get install texlive-latex-extra

You'll probably need to be root for that (or use the graphical thingie
that will ask for your password).
