Thanks guys for having addressed this removal! I just came here to report the same request.

Pretty much the entire set of bugs that have been fixed in VTE in the last 8 years :-) including potential data leakage by writing the scrollback data unencrytped to disk.
> it has no obsolete library dependencies
It uses an ancient version of VTE which I just asked to get removed in bug 1829377.
There are about a dozen VTE-based emulators shipped by Ubuntu, IMO it's already too much. I see no point in carrying one that couldn't catch up with API changes for 8 years.
I'm just commenting to confirm that you made the right choice by removing stjerm, thanks again!
