Bug#1001793: mate-terminal: Wrong context menu font when using libvte-2.91-0[-common] 0.66.1-1 or 0.66.2-1
Package: mate-terminal
Version: 1.26.0-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,
please see Debian bug #998856 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=998856
I am filing this against mate-terminal, in case, the problem does not originate from libvte:
* What led up to the situation?
Using Debian sid, running apt-get upgrade, which installed libvte-2.91-0 and libvte-2.91-common 0.66.1-1.
After that, the context (right-click) menu font in mate-terminal became monospace, probably the same system wide monospace font,
mate-terminal is using for terminal output, instead of the regular system wide application font.
The reported problem still exists in 0.66.2-1 and downgrading to 0.64.2-3 still fixes it. It was also already present in mate-terminal 1.24.1-1.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
Downgrade both packages to 0.64.2-3.
* What was the outcome of this action?
After downgrade to 0.64.2-3 the font was back to normal.
