Passwordcheck Extension Not Installing

Hi Community,

I have a PostgreSQL 17.2 database running on Ubuntu 22.04. I'm trying to
install the passwordcheck extension, but I keep getting a "file not found"
error.

postgres=# create extension passwordcheck;
ERROR: extension "passwordcheck" is not available
DETAIL: Could not open extension control file
"/usr/share/postgresql/17/extension/passwordcheck.control": No such file or
directory.
HINT: The extension must first be installed on the system where PostgreSQL
is running.

Even though I have installed the postgresql-contrib packages, I still
cannot see the extension. Below, I have listed the steps I followed. Could
you help me with this issue?
