Bug Description

Binary package hint: byobu

running 'byobu -S foo' gives has recently been broken.

Doing so results in a byobu session being opened and then closed, showing:
   Cannot exec 'foo': No such file or directory

I use 'screen -S smoser-dev' to name the screen session.

True, recent change.

I started naming byobu sessions "byobu", such that users could run screen and byobu sessions side by side, without byobu messing with non-byobu screen sessions.

    - Positively massive changeset, enabling users of Unix/Linux distros
      for which Byobu is not packaged (as well as non-root users of any
      Unix/Linux distro) to $(./configure && make && make install) byobu!
      LP: #609851, #608995, #503554
    - I think this is a significant enough milestone to bump version to 3.0
  * install, manpages, rules: update package build/install procedures to
    use configure && make && make install
  * debian/control:
    - depend on automake
    - autoconf for new build
    - bump standards
    - use breaks instead of conflicts
  * AUTHORS, README: update email address and install instructions
  * debian/rules, usr/bin/byobu-export, usr/share/man/man1/byobu-export.1:
    - deprecate the byobu-export utility
  * usr/share/man/man1/byobu.1: fix lintian warning about hyphen
  * usr/share/applications/byobu.desktop: fix lintian warning about encoding
    key
  * debian/source/format: added
  * configure.ac: fixup BYOBU_PREFIX in the configure, LP: #611157
  * rpm/byobu.spec: deprecated; byobu is now in Fedora proper; please use
    that package if you require RPMs
  * configure.ac, usr/bin/byobu: bump to version 3.0
