I guess vte usage in debian-installer for Ubuntu purposes doesn't matter
much, but we would need to strip the udeb dependencies from the
cdebconf-terminal before proceeding. Anyway, since the situation of the
vte removal in Debian isn't quite solved yet, I don't feel the vte
removal concept to be mature enough for now.

Remove old vte package from Ubuntu

Bug description:
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).
sjterm was already requested for removal in LP: #1728241
$ reverse-depends src:vte
Reverse-Depends
===============
* gnome-genius (for libvte9)
* pypar2 (for python-vte)
* rasmol [amd64 arm64 armhf i386 s390x] (for libvte9)
* stjerm (for libvte9)
