[Bug 1516396] [NEW] libvte-2.90-dev and libvte-2.91-dev shouldn't conflict

 

Public bug reported:

These are two different, API/ABI-incompatible library versions
(installed under different directories, having different SONAME).

I should be able to install both versions at once, and let the build
script of apps choose which one they're building against. Just as I can
install e.g. libgtk2.0-dev and libgtk-3-dev at the same time.
