It took me a while to figure out what was going on and how to fix it, having found this page explaining the situation: https://itsfoss.com/fix-right-click-touchpad-ubuntu/ There are two separate but closely related issues, either or both of which may constitute a bug. 1. When GNOME was installed prior to the upgrade to 18.04, the prior setting should be respected rather than reset to default. I simply lost the ability to secondary (right) click from the touchpad with no notice. Both left and right buttons acted as primary clicks. 2. My touchpad (Acer V3-574) has hardware left and right buttons, and my understanding from the documentation is that the two-finger method should not be enabled in that case. I was unable to get the two-finger method to work.
