tufte.bst in wrong location

[moewew]

• I have read the MiKTeX Contributing Guidelines

The tufte-latex package currently installs the bibliography style tufte.bst into texmf/tex/latex/tufte-latex. As

\documentclass{tufte-book}

\usepackage{filecontents}
\begin{filecontents}{\jobname.bib}
@book{appleby,
  author    = {Humphrey Appleby},
  title     = {On the Importance of the Civil Service},
  year      = {1980},
  publisher = {Pub},
  address   = {Place},
}
\end{filecontents}

\begin{document}
Lorem\cite{appleby}

\bibliography{\jobname}  
\bibliographystyle{tufte} 
\end{document} 

and in particular BibTeX's complaint

I couldn't open style file tufte.bst
---line 22 of file euttzetzete.aux
 : \bibstyle{tufte
 :                }
I'm skipping whatever remains of this command

demonstrate, the file is not found there by BibTeX.

Please move tufte.bst to texmf/bibtex/bst/tufte-latex so that it can be found by BibTeX.

By the author's request the .bst file is not installed in bibtex/bst/tufte-latex.

Mhhh, fair enough. But I believe this is a genuine mistake by the author of the tds.zip. The .bst file is not found in the tex subtree and hence useless. TeX live installs the .bst into bibtex/bst: https://www.tug.org/svn/texlive/trunk/Master/texmf-dist/bibtex/bst/tufte-latex/ and https://www.tug.org/svn/texlive?view=revision&revision=37649

I opened an issue at the tufte-latex bugtracker: Tufte-LaTeX/tufte-latex#142
