You need (or at least I did) to install ttf-bitstream-vera first (which was available for me through the application manager).

The debs can be found at the following website (since one of the files is 200K bigger than this forums attachment limit):

Next download and install the debs in the following order: libvte-common, libvte4, osso-xterm
Great! One problem remains: input of <Ctrl><non-alphabetic-char> does not work, ie., Ctrl-a works, but not Ctrl-\. The last time I recall this working correctly was under IT OS 2007 version 4.2007.26-8... do you have any insight if it is a problem in the Osso-Xterm code?
