Bug#830312: xserver-xorg-input-libinput lacks right-click support on touchpad!
Until xserver-xorg-input-libinput gets fixed a workaround is to
reinstall the xserver-xorg-input-synaptics driver and then adjust the
Xorg configuration to get tap-to-click to work..
To get tap-to-click with synatics, copy
/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/70-synaptics.conf to /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d and
add TapButton lines to the "Default clickpad buttons" section. That
section will look something like this:
# This option enables the bottom right corner to be a right button on clickpads
# and the right and middle top areas to be right / middle buttons on clickpads
# with a top button area.
# This option is only interpreted by clickpads.
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "Default clickpad buttons"
MatchDriver "synaptics"
Option "SoftButtonAreas" "50% 0 82% 0 0 0 0 0"
Option "SecondarySoftButtonAreas" "58% 0 0 15% 42% 58% 0 15%"
Option "TapButton1" "1"
Option "TapButton2" "2"
Option "TapButton3" "3"
EndSection
This should get you both tap-to-click and (regular) right-clicks.
