enc is a git format-patch from the upstream tilix project that resolves this issue - I have added the DEP3 header.

The issue occurs because Tilix v1.7.5 is using an API that was originally available in vte2.91 before the beta release.

The beta release of vte that is now in bionic-proposed has removed this API call. It was fixed in the upstream Tilix project but I understand that a formal release of Tilix will not be made until approx 14th March.

If Ubuntu intend to take this newer version then great. If not, this patch should be applied.

This has been tested by enabling bionic-proposed, installing the vte libraries and the latest tilix. Confirmed the transparent observation.

Then pull-lp-source tilix and applied the patch to debian/patches before debuild -us -uc and installing the resulting .deb's that were created.
