Public bug reported:

Sorry for reporting this way if it's not correct.

The PPA version of byobu(5.97) seems to be incompatible with tmux(1.8-5)
in trusty and probably older releases.

Situation:
- Upgraded my 14.04 installation to the latest byobu version from the PPA.
- Uncommented "source-file $BYOBU_CONFIG_DIR/windows.tmux" in 
/usr/share/byobu/profiles/tmuxrc.
- Configured ~/.byobu/windows.tmux with "new-session -A -s byobu; neww 
mycommand", which works well.

Problem:
- New windows and panes are opened in / instead of ~.
- I found that the parameter -c was introduced for the commands new-window|neww 
and new-session in t-mux 1.9. byobu adds a "-c #{pane_current_path}" to 
keybindings like F2 and ctrl+a c, but this does not seem to work.

Solution:
- Installing a newer version of tmux (like 
https://launchpad.net/~mpanella/+archive/ubuntu/tmux) solved the problem 
without changing the configuration.

Please consider including an updated version of tmux in the PPA for
Ubuntu releases that ship versions below 1.9.
