Ideally, your development (i.e. vcs trunk) version would use /usr/bin/env but
the distro-installed version would use /usr/bin/python. I'm not particularly
sympathetic to someone who wants to run the distro-installed version of byobu
with a from-source installation of Python. But even in those cases, they can
probably invoke the script explicitly, e.g.

$ /usr/local/bin/python /usr/bin/byobu
