I think that it is in the Debian control files.

https://github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/blob/master/debian/control.bottom.in

I have been away from my LinuxCNC machines for a week or so, but
before that I was working through the build-time and run-time
dependencies one-by-one to determine which were real.

I think if you remove python-vte from that file then the deb will
install without it.
If you feel like doing the tests, it would be useful to see which GUIs
then work, and which not.

At release time we can probably backport python-vte on the linuxCNC
repo, the way we do with some other dependencies, like glade-gtk2
here: http://www.linuxcnc.org/dists/wheezy/base/binary-amd64/
