[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package byobu - 5.127-0ubuntu1

---------------
byobu (5.127-0ubuntu1) cosmic; urgency=medium

  * usr/share/byobu/profiles/bashrc:
    - Googley PS1 for non-Ubuntu distros
  * usr/lib/byobu/logo, usr/share/byobu/profiles/bashrc:
    - use Google lego logo for gLinux
  * usr/lib/byobu/logo: LP: #1769676
    - don't use the Ubuntu logo in the status line, as this breaks ssh
      clients coming to Ubuntu from other OSes without the Ubuntu font
  * usr/lib/byobu/include/shutil, usr/lib/byobu/Makefile.am,
    usr/lib/byobu/rcs_cost, usr/share/byobu/status/status,
    usr/share/man/man1/byobu.1,
    usr/lib/byobu/ec2_cost,
    usr/lib/byobu/include/ec2instancespricing.py,
    usr/lib/byobu/include/Makefile.am, usr/lib/byobu/include/shutil,

    usr/share/man/man1/byobu.1,
  * usr/bin/byobu-janitor.in:
    - deprecate unmaintained ec2/rcs pricing functionality
    - this never really worked well, and these prices are constantly changing
    - clear out stale status cache
  * debian/control, usr/lib/byobu/ip_address, usr/lib/byobu/network,
    usr/share/man/man1/wifi-status.1: LP: #1748956
    - switch entirely to iproute2, away from net-tools and ifconfig
    - only remaining ifconfig is fall-back logic, in case /sbin/ip is
      not found
  * usr/share/byobu/desktop/byobu.desktop: LP: #1739708
    - update categories so that Byobu can show up in Cinnamon/Mint's
      preferred applications list
  * usr/share/byobu/pixmaps/byobu.14.png,
    usr/share/byobu/pixmaps/byobu.192.png,
    usr/share/byobu/pixmaps/byobu.64.png,
    usr/share/byobu/pixmaps/byobu.png:
    - re-render png's, as Chrome started rendering middle color wrong
  * usr/bin/byobu-select-profile.in, usr/share/man/man1/byobu-select-
    profile.1: LP: #1717746
    - deprecate interactive mode for byobu-select-profile
  * usr/lib/byobu/include/toggle-utf8.in: LP: #1696546
    - try to support zsh and other shells in addition to bash
  * usr/bin/byobu-shell.in:
    - update getting started to byobu.org
  * usr/share/byobu/profiles/tmux: LP: #1617689
    - add a comment about motd printing
  * usr/share/man/man1/byobu.1: LP: #1618185
    - update documentation on setting a logo
  * debian/compat, debian/control:
  * debian/compat, debian/control, usr/lib/byobu/include/config.py.in,
    usr/lib/byobu/include/select-session.py:
    - neverending fight with lintian
    - hardcode python3 as our interpreter
  * usr/lib/byobu/include/shutil:
    - check for lsb-release before using (not present on Debian)
  * usr/share/byobu/profiles/bashrc:
    - fix missing bash 256 ps1 colors
