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:

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:
