Thanks for the issue, I will test this on a Mint installation by the end of the week and I will update the script.

I think the following two lines may be good enough till you hear from someone else: 1) After vte install, my vte-2.91.pc was installed in /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/vte-2.91.pc while my PKG_CONFG_DIR was empty. My makefile says

prefix=/usr/local
exec_prefix=$prefix
libdir=${exec_prefix}/lib
pkgconfigdir = ${libdir}/pkgconfig 

So this line should solve this issue: export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH

2) Also, terminfo is installed in /usr/local/share/terminfo/x/xterm-termite while mint standard terminfo is /lib/terminfo, so mint wants it in /lib/terminfo/x/xterm-termite. So sudo mkdir -p /lib/terminfo/x; ln -s /usr/local/share/terminfo/x/xterm-termite /lib/terminfo/x/xterm-termite should help. I understand this is too much hardcoding but I'm not sure how this can be standardized

I tested the script on a Linux Mint based on Ubuntu, it worked well. I only had to use the command you provided to fix terminfo. I will try this on a LMDE.

I tried it again, and you are right, only the terminal line needs to be added, specifically for mint/ubuntu I think or maybe a check if terminfo installed is in same dir as other terminfos... (by doing a locate terminfo)
