Public bug reported:

The 'Share your desktop' documentation states that after the 'vino'
package is installed 'Screen Sharing' should become visible in the
'Sharing' options in 'Ubuntu Settings'.

However after installing the 'vino' package the 'Screen Sharing' option
does not become available.

Instead the package 'gnome-remote-desktop' needs to be installed to
enable 'Screen Sharing'.
