Pandoc can’t convert to pdf, `xcolor.sty’ not found

When I try to convert a file to pdf format with pandoc I receive this message:

Error producing PDF.
! LaTeX Error: File `xcolor.sty' not found.

Type X to quit or <RETURN> to proceed,
or enter new name. (Default extension: sty)

Enter file name: 
! Emergency stop.
<read *> 
         
l.36 IfFileExists

Does anyone know how to acquire the xcolor.sty file or some other way of fixing this? I’m using Linux.
