Install VTE by running the following commands:
sed -i -e 's%\\177:%&kh=\\EOH:@7=\\EOF:%g' termcaps/xterm &&
./configure --prefix=/usr --libexecdir=/usr/sbin --disable-gtk-doc &&
make &&
make install
sed -i -e ...: The Home and End keys are broken in the xterm termcap file. This sed command fixes them.
--libexecdir=/usr/sbin: This switch puts libexec files in /usr/sbin instead of /usr/libexec.
--disable-gtk-doc: This switch prevents the building of documentation.
The VTE package contains libvte libraries, vte, gnome-pty-helper, auxillary VTE programs, scripts and the vtemodule Python module.
libvte libraries provide the functions necessary to implement a “termcap file” for terminal emulators.
