You have to build it :)
We use a different stlport than Novell so getting the component
from them likely doesn't work.

Right. I'd enable them also for Debian (and therefore
Ubuntu once it syncs) but the problem is that it currently
needs .dlls from the Windows installset to build which
is a no-no for packages in Debian main. Maybe, I'll create
a libuno-cil for contrib, but I am not sure... Convince me
that I need to ;-)
