Title:
  switcheroo-control required by gnome-shell but not installed by
  default

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  gnome-shell needs switcheroo-control in order to determine if the
  system has a hybrid graphics configuration, so it displays the option
  to use dedicated graphics card when the user right-clicks on an
  application, and so it displays the name of the dedicated GPU in
  System Settings > Details.

  This package is missing from the fresh install of 18.04, and probably older releases as well.
  It can be installed by the user with the command: sudo apt install switcheroo-control , but it should be installed by default considering its importance.
