[Bug 1740804] Re: Remove old vte package from Ubuntu

[Jeremy Bicha]

** No longer affects: rasmol (Ubuntu)

** Changed in: vte (Ubuntu)
       Status: Expired => Incomplete

** Description changed:

  NOTE
  ====
  Debian's debian-installer (specifically cdebconf-gtk-terminal I believe) uses a udeb from the old vte package. See https://bugs.debian.org/887649
  
  Original Bug Report
  ===================
- The old vte source hasn't been maintained upstream since 2011 (when GNOME 3 was released). vte will be dropped from Debian Testing soon. We should not ship it in Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. The replacement is provided by source vte2.91 (which requires gtk3).
