They are not listed in the manifest of
google-mock_1.6.0-0ubuntu3_i386.deb? Instead there are some shared
libraries that, at upstreams request, the Debian package no longer
provides.

Rather, aptitude builds a single /static/ library if the google-mock
package does not contain the shared library. The build system,
between configure.ac and tests/Makefile.am, is only prepared for the
Debian google-mock packages, so the significant divergance in Ubuntu
may require a minor patch to the these files.
