Package: libvte-2.91-0
Version: 0.54.0-1

When I open a terminal, e.g., `gnome-terminal` or `tilix`, the cursor
will display normally as long I do not switch to another window.
However, once I switch to another window, then switch back to the
terminal, the cursor disappears.

I can make the cursor reappear by opening a new tab. When I open a new
tab, the cursor will display properly in both tabs. This behavior is the
same in both `gnome-terminal` and in `tilix`.

In `gnome-terminal`, if I open a new window, rather than a new tab, the
cursor will not display in either window.
