Don't ask me, /me wonders too. I am thinking of one of
* --enable-vte=2.91: we would have to do rpm -q vte-devel in .spec, but
that should work
* for ver in `seq 0 9`; do
    if pkg-config --exists vte-2.9$ver; then
      vteversion="vte-2.9$ver"
    fi
  done
* yell at the author of the versioning to retract and rethink!

thanks,
