VTE bug breaks Pippy activity

[Daniel Drake]

Hi,

There is a bug in the VTE package in Fedora 11 and 12 that breaks the
Pippy activity (http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/9479)

All the hard work has been done, but I can't get the fix into Fedora.
The maintainer is unresponsive to bugzilla and email.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=537391

What can I do?
(making a local build to ship in the OLPC OS is one option, but I'd like
to get this fixed properly and I'm prepared to do the work)

cheers
Daniel
