<upd_detl>Yes, I doubt that "pest" could be right.
It could be a mix-up with
ペスト (n) (1) bubonic plague (ger: Pest); black plague; the pest;...
.
Apart from the computer sense (vs), the dictionaries I checked say it's 
either 
- paste (adhesive mixture) or 
- paste (food spread)</upd_detl>

<upd_detl>Shouldn't there be some explicit mention of the computer sense (as used in my example sentence)?
The definition seems to me to make it look like it's a noun only: 
paste (food, adhesive, etc.)
.
In this context, "vs" might suggest to a user that, as a verb, it might mean "to glue something".
.
Genius WaEi, for example, has the following in its entry for pe-suto:
pe-suto suru: paste (tadoushi) (conpyu-ta)
