Please.. Downgrading VTE for this reason won't happen. Many other packages are built with the latest version (running "apt rdepends libvte-2.91-0" gives you a hint).

Rewriting the patch or fix gdebi so the patch isn't needed on Ubuntu are two reasonable options. If you want to help fix this, please concentrate on one of those options.
