Yep. Tried it on a USB live boot of Pop!_OS 19.10 and it stops 
complaining about NvXCtrl.


...Then it starts complaining about nvidia-ml not existing but the 
library names are 100% the same with paths only being different. There 
is libnvidia-ml.so, libnvidia-ml.so.0, and 
libnvidia-ml.so.<DRIVER_VERSION> on both Ubuntu and Arch.
