A short update:
Checking the documentation on GNOME Developer Center revealed that no VTE function used in the scope plugin seems to require a specific version. So I posted my PR without any version requirement for VTE (so only [vte-2.91]).

It sounds odd you'd need a version not found in Ubuntu, unless you'd be using a very old Ubuntu. And in any case, depending on something too recent for major distributions to have it has to be a conscious choice: some users might not have access to your software, or have a harder time to get it. Just a thought.
So I downloaded the sources and built it myself. After that the error message about the missing "#include <vte/vte.h>" was gone.
But I got linker errors for calls to unresolved external function "vte_terminal_set_color_foreground_rgba". I assume this is some geany macro stuff. It turned out I can simply call "vte_terminal_set_color_foreground" because they changed the parameter from "GdkColor" to "GdkRGBA" - just what I needed.
Oooh, right, in Geany we have wrappers to bridge this ABI break so we don't have to deal with it, so yeah the `_rgba` suffix is just an internal Geany glitch in vte.c, not any actual API anywhere. Sorry for the confusion it gave you indeed.

About the version I simply copied what I found in the debugger plugin PR for GTK3 porting. If I got a version running I will re-check to find the smallest version of VTE2.91 which still works. For your information: I am running Ubuntu 16.04.
