Apache mod_deflate not found

apache-2.2mod-deflate

I read about how to enable the mod_deflate on my "clean" installation of Apache 2.2.17 on Ubuntu.
I found that I should do this in order to enable:

LoadModule deflate_module /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_deflate.so

So I went to my /usr/lib/apache2/modules, but didn't find the mod_deflate.so file.

What could the problem be?? Is this file even supposed to be there? Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks!!

Location is the same as on my Ubuntu box, however I use de Debian way of enabling modules in apache server. Look for a symlink inside /etc/apache2/mods-enabled, if not then create the symlink with the a2enmod application or do it manually.
