I got version 0.74.0-2 while updating my system today. Thats why your 
packages got overwritten.

But I've managed to install the older packages with the fix from your repo 
now  and everything is fine again.

OK, thanks for the update. Hope the fix will make it to the official libvte 
package soon.

As said, I've managed to install the older packages now and everything is 
fine again. But the newer packages from the updates still want to be 
installed when running

apt upgrade

I gues I've to pinn the libvte package to the version from your repo to 
exclude this packages from the updates till the fix has made it into a newer 
debian package?

Ciao,

Which exact version are you testing? Please use

dpkg -l libvte-2.91-0:amd64

otherwise I cannot say anything about your results. My package with
latest changes is versioned 0.73.99-1+fix, not 0.74.

They are not.

We are waiting for feedback to make sure that things are fixed without
introducing regressions.

Sure, see the readme file.

No need to build anything, just pick up my packages.

Hi Samuel and all,

I was on vacation for three weeks and updated my Debian testing system 
today. Also the libvte packages have been updated to a newer version, 0.74, 
and the packages with all fixes from your repo, Samuel, that worked so fine 
with the terminal have been overwritten. With this newer versions of the 
packages at least some problems that have been fixed before do occure again. 
E.g. the screen is ruptured again when using apt and the progressbar is 
displayed at the bottom of the screen. Also I was able to use vim perfectly 
with the 0.73 packages, with the new 0.74 versions the focus again is moved 
to the command line of the editor.

I took a look at the bug report and into the changelogs, but its not really 
clear to me, if the fixes are included in the 0.74 version now or if they 
are still not included. Whats the current state of the bug? Is the fix 
included in the 0.74 packages or are the problems, that I have now, new?

Can I somehow install the old 0.73 packages from your repo, Samuel, or can 
you provide the 0.74 packages with the fix please or shall I try to build 
the new packages myself and include the patch?

Ciao and thanks for your help,

  Schoepp
