Maybe they put it in some subpackage you didn't install?  A very long
time ago (7.2 days) it was one of our contrib modules, so it's
conceivable that someone might be packaging it in postgresql-contrib
still.  I didn't think ubuntu was around that long though.  I believe
most packagers these days put it in the -server subpackage.

If they really didn't include it anywhere, get a better Linux distro.
