The URL highlighting feature of mate-terminal breaks after updating vte3 from 0.58.3-1 to 0.60.0-1.
This also happens with lxterminal and terminator. It doesn't seem to affect to xfce4-terminal though.

Additional info:
* vte 0.60.0-1
* mate-terminal 1.24.0-1 (latest) or 1.22.1-1 (previous).

Steps to reproduce:
* Run mate-terminal
* Go to Edit -> Profile Preferences and ensure the option "Highlight URLs under mouse pointer" is enabled
* type https://bugs.archlinux.org and see that it is not highlighted when hovered with the mouse pointer

VTE 0.60 removed the implementation for vte_terminal_match_add_gregex, which has been deprecated since VTE 0.46.

Please file bugs against the individual terminals which were broken.
