python-vte will be removed from Debian soon. It has been deprecated
and unmaintained for years. The replacement is to use gtk3 and
gobject-introspection (see the gir1.2-vte-2.91 package).

Therefore, please don't recommend python-vte.

While you're at it, please stop recommending python-gtk2 too.

On behalf of the Debian GNOME Team,
Jeremy Bicha
