Bug#611826: Failed to load terminal capabilities from '/etc/termcap'

[Ross Vandegrift]

Package: libvte9
Version: 1:0.28.1-1
Followup-For: Bug #611826

I also just hit this bug after upgrading libvte9 from 0.24.3-2+b1 -> 0.28.1-1.
However, the workaround provided by Christopher Baines isn't a complete fix.

After making the symlink he suggests, my gnome-terminal works again.  However,
I cannot switch between open tabs with Ctrl-PageUp.

Ctrl-PageDown work, however.
