I also discovered this bug after updating to 10.10 Maverick Meerkat. Guake said: When starting top: TERM environment variable not set. htop: Error opening terminal: unknown. mc: TERM environment variable needs set. screen: Please set a terminal type.
I read this thread and tested lxterminal, tilda, xfce4-terminal - they said the same. Solved with maverick-proposed's vte packages '1:0.26.0-0ubuntu2' on amd64. All four (guake, lxterminal, tilda, xfce4-terminal) now works.
