I don't recall the details, but the general reason is variations in things missing/supported in the various firmware versions.
You are right.
AFAIR newer Kindles lack terminfo entry for xterm emulation. That's why I included terminfo in kterm package. Some programs run in kterm complained about it missing, as default emulation in kterm is xterm.

But I didn't realize the Vte library also uses terminfo as a fallback to termcap (via ncurses). And Vte didn't know the path to the custom terminfo database.

I'll prepare new package.
