Thanks for reporting.

I see that vte2.91 0.60.0-2ubuntu2 (currently in the focal release
archive) mentions dropping some duplicated files in the changelog
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vte2.91/0.60.0-2ubuntu2). I
don't see the mentioned file name listed on
https://packages.ubuntu.com/focal/amd64/libvte-2.91-0/filelist either.

Could you check if this was resolved in 0.60.0-2ubuntu2, or do you still
get error messages with the latest version?

Title:
  libvte attempts to overwrite file in package libvte-common

Status in vte2.91 package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  libvte-2.91-0 0.60.0-2ubuntu1 from focal-proposed tries to install
  /usr/lib/systemd/user/vte-spawn-.scope.d/defaults.conf which is
  already provided by libvte-2.91-common 0.60.0-2ubuntu1 and fails.

  Steps to reproduce:

  1. sudo apt install libvte-2.91-common
  2. sudo apt install libvte-2.91-0

  Expected results:

  libvte-2.91 installs.

  Actual results:

  $ sudo apt --fix-broken install
