Hi,

(Sorry for the late bug report, somehow vice was missed when filing
bugs for src:vte removal.)

vice depends on libvte9, which are deprecated in favor of libvte-2.91-0.
Thus we want to remove src:vte from the archive. vice should switch to
the new vte version.

Please try to do this before the Stretch release as we're going to
try to remove src:vte this cycle.

We'll bump this to serious when the list of rdeps is small and we're
getting ready to removing vte completely.

If you have any question don't hesitate to ask.

Please see attached patch which disables vte support which seems optional.
No idea how this affects the usability of vice.
I see upstream trunk has configure checking for vte-2.91 already so
investigating updating or backporting that is another option.
