Results from 'apt search xdg-desktop-portal*'
(this is on Linux Mint 18.3)

i   xdg-desktop-portal
p   xdg-desktop-portal:i386
v   xdg-desktop-portal-backend
v   xdg-desktop-portal-backend:i386                                    
i   xdg-desktop-portal-dev
i   xdg-desktop-portal-gtk
p   xdg-desktop-portal-gtk:i386

What am I missing? Do I need to install xdg-desktop-portal-backend as
well?

Below is from Xubuntu 18.04:
xdg-desktop-portal/bionic,now 0.11-1 amd64 [installed,automatic]
xdg-desktop-portal-dev/bionic,bionic 0.11-1 all
