Comment (by ryandesign):
virt-viewer, vte, and simdutf are separate ports, maintained by different
maintainers.
The only part of this build failure that could be considered a virt-viewer
issue is if you are requesting that the problem be resolved by virt-viewer
no longer depending on vte. If Dan doesn't want to do that, this ticket
can be closed as wontfix. If Dan can't do that because virt-viewer
absolutely requires vte, this ticket can be closed as invalid.
If your request is that vte should no longer depend on simdutf, then that
should be filed as a vte ticket.
If your request is that the build failures of vte and simdutf be fixed,
separate tickets for those ports should be filed so that they can be
assigned to their maintainers. In the event that the build failures are
upstream problems, it would be more expedient to file tickets with the
upstream developers.
