It was removed from 17.10 because it failed to build, and once it got fixed in Debian, it looks like it was a bit too late in the release cycle to sync. Bug 1714497 contains more details. It might be possible to get a backport from bionic, please see the instructions for "Requesting a Backport" at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBackports#Requesting_a_Backport.
