      roxterm is in the antiX repository, but it pulls in some dependencies from Debian. roxterm-gtk3 depends on libvte-2.90-9, which was last seen in the Debian repository in version Jessie. There is, however, a similar package in Debian Buster called libvte-2.91-0. I was surprised to find no mention of this issue anywhere on antiX forums, other than this post and this post on the old forum archive about GTK 3.20 breaking roxterm and that antiX would need to find a replacement. antiX comes with the GTK2 version, which works fine, and depends on libvte9, the GTK2 version of libvte. Also, both roxterm-gtk2 and -gtk3 were in Debian Jessie but are not in any later version.

        Thanks for the bug report.
        Fix should arrive in the repos asap.

        Philosophers have interpreted the world in many ways; the point is to change it.

        antiX with runit - leaner and meaner.

          I am aware that the GTK2 choice is deliberate. I just wanted to put this out here so this topic comes up when someone searches for it. That way people know the GTK3 version doesn’t work. I thought it was going to be removed from, at least, the stable repository.

            I edited my post and a fix has been sent to the repos so users can install roxterm-gtk3 if they wish.
