It would be helpful to file a bug against the Debian package in that
case. I checked dpkg -L and the file doesn't seem to be present; I also
don't see a note about it in the changelog.
Debian packages in the main distribution aren't supposed to depend on
non-free software, so I suppose it's possible the file is missing for
that reason.
