You have done "apt-file update" before, haven't you...

I've found this in the man page (https://www.mankier.com/1/intel_panel_fitter):

    "In the future, there will be support for this feature inside the Linux 
    Kernel."

Perhaps this is your case?

Otherwise, you could try to build intel_panel_fitter from the sources:

cd /tmp
apt-get source intel-gpu-tools
cd intel-gpu-tools-1.14

There appears tools/intel_panel_fitter.c, which should be what you are looking 
for.

Happy hacking
